Not really, since the existing wiktionaries would continue as they have all along.
I am not agreeing or disagreeing or taking any position on this at all. Please consider my questions about this to be merely data gathering. :-)
Why should we have such a formal break? Why shouldn't we instead transition from one to the other in a seamless way? I worry a lot about duplication of effort, etc.
Are there objections from old-school wiktionarians to the ultimate wiktionary plans? Is it possible that we could address these objections through code?
I'm very sorry that I don't already know all of this, but I'm sure you can all get me up to speed quite quickly.
