Just to round up: bn.wikipedia.org se.wikimedia.org it.wikisource.org have all expressed interest.
Yesterday we enabled CirrusSearch as a secondary for bn.wikipedia.org. You can get its results by performing a normal search and then added 'srbackend=CirrusSearch' to the url. You can compare the results like so: Current: http://bn.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?search=%E0%A6%8F%E0%A6%95%E0%A6%9F%E0%A6... Cirrus: http://bn.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?search=%E0%A6%8F%E0%A6%95%E0%A6%9F%E0%A6...
I'd love to be able to say that it is working well but I can't read any Bengali so I have no idea.
I'm requesting another deployment window to do se.wikimedia.org and it.wikisource.org now.
Any other wikis want in?

Sorry for being confusing. Accents folding is turned on for English wikis but off for all other wikis.

Sorry, I didn't understand what you meant by "that" in the sentence "Right now that is on for English but off for all other languages."

One problem on Swedish Wikipedia with the current search engine is that it just doesn't do characters like å, ä and ö (which are three common letters in Swedish) well. They are lumped together with a and o respectively, which is like getting your i-words lumped together with your j-words. Åland is followed by Alaska, for example. So, as one user answered this question, does this function do this better? If it isn't, why should we test it on Swedish Wikipedia? His words, not mine.
Right now that is on for English but off for all other languages. Some other languages may want it but Swedish certainly isn't one of them.
