Great opportunity for ambassadors to get involved.

So, if you've not been following along on wikivoyage-l ( https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikivoyage-l ), you should know that Wikivoyage is now hosted on WMF servers. :) We're currently in "beta", as there's still lots of smaller and larger issues to work through, including transferring images to Commons or local wikis as appropriate. But now's a great time to get involved if you want to help fix things. These are the languages that are live now:
httsp://en.wikivoyage.org/ https://de.wikivoyage.org/ https://ru.wikivoyage.org/ https://nl.wikivoyage.org/ https://it.wikivoyage.org/ https://sv.wikivoyage.org/
But, any other language code should gracefully redict you to Wikimedia Incubator, where you can easily get started to prove viability of a new language. :-)
Like I said: Lots of things are still wonky. If you notice something you can't fix, please report it on Bugzilla and add it as a blocker for the tracking bug here:

While we're not done yet, I'd like to take this chance to thank everyone who's been part of the process so far:
* the existing communities for being awesome in supporting this migration :-) * Wikivoyage e.V. and especially Hans (for being our main tech contact managing the DB transfers), Stefan (for handling all the organizational fun), and Roland (for technical support and review). * the WMF technical launch team: Chris Steipp, Daniel Zahn, Matthias Mullie, Sam Reed + everyone who chipped in with help and support. * the WMF legal and community advocacy team: Geoff Brigham, Kelly Kay, Philippe Beaudette, and everyone else who helped. * anyone else I've forgotten to name :-)
All the best, Erik
