Isn't that the point though? EL is not part of our project. The Spanish Wikipedia is. Jimbo's position is beggining to gain my favor. It is far simpler for us to simply upgrade Spanish Wikipedia and for Wikipediaholics like me and AstroNomer to revitalize the Spanish WIki than it is for us to deal with a separate project alltogether.
If another language Wikipedia wants to be on its own server then that is another thing but EL is not a Wikipedia language community.
We should ask them to re-join our community and remove their slander (keeping their own server or not); if they say yes, then lets point our es: links to them, but if they say no then let's fire-up the Spanish Wikipedia on Phase III.
I'm now /not/ in favor of having our inter-language links go to a non-Wikipedia project at all.
