Hi,

For concrete plans I'm (and as I assume others are to) still waiting for phase 2. Without it people outside might not get the potential of this great project.

They might think of it like Sara Torvalds did about her brother Linus' work just printing "AAAAAAAAAA" and "BBBBBBBB" on the screen using multiple threads on his new 386-machine.

Please do not get it in a wrong manner. WikiData in his actual state is much more than this "AAAAAAAAAA" and "BBBBBBBB" stuff from early 1991. But non techs of the non Wikipedians might not see this.

So: Keep on developing! We really need it!

Marco

Heya folks :)

I've heard a lot of interest from people in running their own instance of Wikibase (the software behind Wikidata) for scientific projects. I have however not seen any more concrete plans yet. I'd love to hear about them if they exist either on or off-list.

Cheers Lydia
