1. Is Flow feature development still frozen? If
and when would Flow feature
development resume?
Yes, principal development is frozen. Like with all production software,
urgent bugs and maintenance are still worked on, and we might add some
minor features.
Thanks for the confirmation. I would prefer you would scrap the whole
project, but at least you are not doing anymore damage this way.
2. Will VE be enabled on talk pages?
No. This comes up quite often. VE is designed to edit content. Talk pages
aren't content.
Talk pages *are* content. Among other things. That's you basic mistake
regarding Flow. On talk pages we need to copy content in order to
discuss it, work on drafts and experiment with all elements of content,
such as templates.
Naked discussion is only the most primitive use of talk pages.
So I would expect you to enable VE for use on talk pages. And I would
expect you to make that an priority over almost every other software
projects you have. That is because VE now is almost decent in articles
and is not that far from being useful.
