Hi James,
Thanks for clarifying.
I am just wondering why the two feedback mechanisms send to different targets which I personally find a bit confusing. What has been the decision behind it?
And why is the "Something is wrong" or "Etwas ist schief gelaufen" a privately sent feedback? Wouldn't be great to have here an open process and not sending the feedback to a black hole?
An additionally question, what would be if the German community decides/wishes/asks for having a slightly different visual editor as for example the English Wikipedia community. Would that be possible at all? I could not find any possibilities to adapt the editor to the local needs on the extension page… just out of curiosity…

The feedback tool ("Leave feedback" or "Rückmeldungen hinterlassen") posts your feedback to a page on-wiki (for dewiki, this was https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:VisualEditor/Feedback but has now been moved to https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:VisualEditor/R%C3%BCckmeldungen this morning). The Parsoid bug tool ("Something is wrong" or "Etwas ist schief gelaufen") posts privately to a server so we can work out what went wrong.

Hi James,
Great news!
Is the already given feedback publicly available? If yes, where.
Thank you.

TL;DR: VisualEditor will be deployed on 14 new Wikipedias next week as an opt-in alpha. Your assitance is requested to inform your wikis about this and help get the software translated.
This is now done (for de, nl, fr, it, ru, es, sv, pl, ja, ar, he, hi, ko, and zh). Grateful for feedback, bug reports and suggestions of how we can improve the VisualEditor for you.
Yours,
