"Numerous news outlets are quoting a Reuters report that Jimmy Wales
has stated that there will be a "freeze" on editing. Jimbo says that
statements about methods for achieving the widely-discussed stable
"Wikipedia 1.0" were misinterpreted as implying a project-wide
lockdown. Wikipedia's open editing will continue for the forseeable
future, and any potential stablized version would exist alongside the
current system. Jimbo was last seen looking for the 'edit this page'
link on the Reuters article."
