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. :-)
