Hi Nathan,
At the moment the WMF legal team is monitoring the situation. We have been informed that we will receive notifications by Google of takedowns, but we have not received any notifications that have resulted in a takedown of a Wikipedia page to date. We're assessing the impact on the Wikimedia projects before we take action or make public statements.
That said, the Foundation will release our first-ever transparency report soon, detailing the requests we receive for content takedowns and user data, our process for handling them, and our incidences of compliance with such requests. It will address requests from this past year, so the RtbF ruling won't be reflected, but next year's report will address those requests.
Legal may have more, as always.

Now that Google has begun processing (tens of thousands) of "Right to be forgotten" claims from individuals, has the WMF [or any chapter] received notification of any Wikimedia content being removed from search results?
Is there a plan on how to respond to these? Some (notably the BBC) have published some of the notifications, inducing a sort of Streisand effect. Will the WMF publish or publicly track somewhere the receipt of these notifications?
