There were two problems:
1. It will upset Google. Well, folks, at the moment we are largely 
Google-blind. Might be a good time to move!
2. What to put at www.wikipedia.org. This boiled down to:

a) a multilingual portal page
b) a browser-sniffing thing that would send users to the right place

and nobody could agree on which was best.

That was about it, right?

Now copy the above text and send it to yourself 500 times to simulate 
the ongoing debate ;-)
