Lee, what "many other things" will reassigning
wikipedia.com affect?
Fortunately, we have no wikipedia webmail, so that complication doesn't exist.
I *think* I can change
wikipedia.com, while leaving *.wikipedia.com to the old
machine. This is important until we move the Intl wikis over.
We need a migration plan for those, too, of course.

To answer my own question: yes!
http://old.wikipedia.com/ (but
you have to put the "old" in after every click; it's still
configured to provide every link with the "www" in the URL. Lee,
can you change that?)
No, but Jimbo can. Jimbo, could you (a) set up DNS so that
"old.wikipedia.com" points to ross, and (b) change the
wikiLocalSettings.php file in the old system to put "old." into
the internal links?
The fact that "wikipedia.com" still points to ross is a problem
for some people as well I understand, but I'm reluctant to ask
you to change that specifically, since that will affect many
other things
