What dates are you talking about? Was there a promise that the German Wikipedia would be running on Phase III by a specific date? If that is what you are talking about then I agree. "It's done when it is mostly bug-free and by the way you can help squash bugs" should be the main message with maybe a rough estimate on a range of dates it might be finished.
Maybe you can keep us informed how things are going.

Yep - this is one of the things the Wikipedia Embassies will be used for.

Yes, but I hope it didn't sound like an accusation. I'm referring to statements like "short after ...", "in about ..." and such. Sorry for not being clearer.

Exactly. Is there anything we can help with when founding the non-profit?
BTW, it seems I was unsubscribed from intlwiki-l at the end of september. Am I the only one?
