Hi all,
after watching various wikipedia mailing lists silently for a while, it
might be time for my first two cents.

I have noticed that, too, but also the other way round, that e.g. the German
Wikipedia is jamming while the English version is still working. Since I
have often been looking at pages from both the German version (de), the
German test version (test-de) and the English version, I think I have seen
all possible combinations of 3 working or jamming wikis. So I don't think
the English version is something special regarding this problem. But usually
when one is on strike, the others are following soon within a few minutes.
Maybe they're all in the same labor union ... ;-)

Btw ... has anyone noticed yet that the automatically added address
Wikitech-l(a)ross.bomis.com at the bottom doesn't seem to work? Mailserver
told me something about "User unknown". Maybe someone can update this
address.
