Is it a good idea to change to the new software after a press release? Imagine something goes wrong and some newspaper features wikipedia in the same day thing go wrong...

Well, my extensive use of subpages in Poker get translated pretty badly, so I'll have to do a lot of manual fixing there. But I'm probably the worst case on that score, and I don't think the problem is that bad, and I'd much rather do it now than after 20,000 more pages are added.
I think what would help a lot is if there were added, to the conversion script, something that made [[Poker/Bluff]] (for instance) into [[Poker/Bluff|Bluff]]. It appears that what the script does right now is to convert instances of [[/Bar]] on a [[Foo]] subpage into [[Foo/Bar]]. I'd say it would be better in 95% of the cases to convert it instead into [[Foo/Bar|Bar]].
Likewise, I'd like to tweak the code for dictionary lists a bit before I add 20 more pages of poker jargon, but that too can be done post-live, and I can do the code myself as soon as it's in some reasonable source control system like Sourceforge CVS.
So I'm certainly in favor of going live.
Woo-hoo!
