All the wikis on phase 3 should now be up to date with the same version 
running on the English wiki and for the last couple days the German wiki.

Of interest:
* page caching for anonymous users' page views reduces database load
* to accomodate the above, IP address is no longer shown in upper corner
* comma page count is being replaced with pages-with-links count; I'll 
be recalculating the present article counts in a bit
* "go" is now default instead of "search"; this is often faster
* various little fixes

The new experimental features on test.wikipedia.org are _not_ installed yet.

If anything's horribly broken, send a note or drop by #wikipedia on 
irc.freenode.net in the next couple hours.

There are likely to be new interface text bits that need localizing.
