As it is the first new project in quite a long time, having a WMF

As this would/should involve the first deployment of semantic

Agree. Starting using SMW for a brand new project for data
could solve all the issues that prevented it
to be used until now? Hope it could.
it would be extremely helpful for project like Commons and Wikisource
(just talking about data now)
Aubrey.
SMW would have to be completely redesigned for use in a project with
millions of pages and millions of attributes where arbitrary queries are
possible.
What limitations would be useful to get the project off the ground?
Some ideas:
The data project is initially only used/queried by Wikipedia projects,
and then cached on the Wikipedia side
The data project is initially limited to only geographic entities.
