This may be a stupid question,... but I've started, so I'll finish.
Does the proposed change in status of interwiki links also apply to interwiki links between say wikipedia and wikiquote? If it does not, is it technically trivial to implement so that interwiki links within our foundation remain with their status as is.
Another query is whether other sites linking to us via interwiki are doing something similar, and if they are, how will they likely react to our change in policy with regard to them?
(no brickbats please, like I said above I have no idea if this is a relevant query or not, but this is just something that occurred to me)

Nope. I was speaking in my own name. It is my view and I share it :-) More seriously, I can ask the board to make a decision on this if this is considered best. Afaik, the only board member who participated in this specific discussion was Jimbo (it was on one of our internal lists). So I do not really know others positions. It goes without saying that Jimbo and Michael will have to abstain on any decision on the matter, due to the conflict of interest.
Although I'd like them in on the discussion.
Time to run this past foundation-l?
Also would be worth alerting Meta admins in particular, since they're the ones who put stuff on the interwiki map in practice.
