Now we are a bit confused and do not really know what is still
missing if anything or how the process should move on from here.
Is there someone who could advice us?
Hi Teemu,
The project-creation process has been in a bit of a mess recently, due to
ongoing work on possible migration from GFDL to a CC licence (or
harmonisation between them). Project creation has finally got going again in
the last week, after a lengthy fallow period. So that's just by way of some
context.
Analysis of fi.wv is at:
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Language_subcommittee/Status/wv/fi - seems
like there might be some more translation of mediawiki messages needed in
order to fulfill localisation requirements. The best people to advise you on
this would be someone on the language committee <
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Language_subcommittee> - I find Pathoschild
very efficient to deal with <http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Pathoschild>.
It may be that some final work needs to be done, or it may simply be that
the developers and the committee are working through a backlog of project
creation requests.
All the best with it - hope it moves into its own domain soon. :-)
