My understanding is that there is a blocking issue for "mul" identified in
https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=32189 and that needs staff review for things to progress.
You may wish to start rattling the cage with Rob Lanphier's team to see if they can get their review done. I have already tried waving it with a staff member, however, it may be that we need to push publicly where it is seen. Asking nicely fails.

Really, simply to add "mul" to the list of included languages should be sufficient (in the double significance of "no specified language - multiple languages"). The "old" prefix would be perhaps better, since it's already in use into Iwpage transclusion. English could be linked to "mul" as default language for translation issues of interface. Is this so terribly difficult? Is there really a hard techno issue, or the whole matter is mainly a matter of "policy"? The latter case would be very disturbing.

Bug 62717 https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=62717 - Move oldwikisource on www.wikisource.org http://www.wikisource.org to mul.wikisource.org http://mul.wikisource.org, and I encourage any of you, reading these posts, to do the same.
This bug title (mul vs. www) sounds rather silly. Focusing on a specific solution rather than the goal you want to achieve is generally considered a bad practice for bug reporters. We have several OldWikisource issues related to the fact that MediaWiki should recognise it as "mul" language and provide standard support for such a case, but being forced to also change the subdomain seems extremely weird. That said, if we manage to get some progress that way I can only be happy. :-)
