Philipp&Joerg -
could you elaborate on:
i) First adapt the database model to the new features (article history, new user groups).
Joergs point is to look at and think first about changes in the existing datastructures. So not only the database, but also other stuff, like user groups.
Other than the ability to flag certain article versions as being OK, what other functionality would user groups have?
One very often requested functionality outside the Wikimedia fold is to use user groups to limit/control editing and viewing of pages (perhaps based on namespace). My point, is to just keep that and other possible uses - even those we never plan to use in Wikimedialand - in mind.
