Mmmm... so I know that it's the English Wikipedia mailing list, but I
suppose that this won't hurt:

In the Hebrew Wikipedia several people tried the VisualEditor. I
counted seven newly reported bugs as a result of this, and one
reopened. There were also a few WONTFIXes, INVALIDs and dupes. Two of
the new bugs were already fixed.

I think that it's a reasonable response level to a brand new opt-in
feature, which is barely alpha quality. It's not big, but it's much
more than zero.
