Erik, I would like to ask you to re-schedule the
migration for some
weeks so as to make it possible for the Wikivoyage communities to
transfer the files in time for the project launch.
I have no problem with that if it's the community's preference. WMF has no
stake in meeting any particular deadline. This might delay things
significantly though. Hans is planning a lot of travel starting next week,
We might be able to schedule a time in December or January for him to
assist the transfer (produce anonymized dumps etc.), but I can't promise
anything til I have a chance to talk to him.
Once again though-if we migrate next week, all the images will still be
accessible via the alternative URL. It won't be pretty at first, but things
can be fixed the wiki way.
