We now have all of that - I don't think like the idea of giving all that functionality up, as it really increases usability and robustness a lot. --[[User:Jeroen De Dauw|Jeroen De Dauw]] ([[User talk:Jeroen De Dauw|talk]]) 18:41, 1 September 2012 (UTC)

:The problem isnt that more features are needed, or even that it is a special page. The extension is starting a new namespace rather than staying in the Special: namespace, and that would take half a day to fix. <span style="font-variant:small-caps">[[User:John Vandenberg|John Vandenberg]] ^{'''([[User talk:John Vandenberg|chat]])'''}</span> 21:01, 25 September 2012 (UTC)

== Next steps ==

''(Moved from the main page)'' Given the moderate level of support and small number of objections to turning on this extension, I'm going to file a bug to have it enabled. The clear most-preferred option for configuring it is the second one: the user rights for the extension (course coordinator, instructor, online volunteer, and campus volunteers) can be distributed by admins, and admins themselves have full access to the extension features. As soon as it's enabled, the current [[outreach:Regional_Ambassadors/Current|regional ambassadors]] who aren't already admins should be given the course coordinator right so they can set up course pages and flag instructors. We'll probably want to come up with standards and a process for guiding how admins distribute the course coordinator right in the future.--[[User:Sage Ross (WMF)|Sage Ross (WMF)]] ([[User talk:Sage Ross (WMF)|talk]]) 14:31, 24 September 2012 (UTC)

:This should be enabled shortly.--[[User:Sage Ross (WMF)|Sage Ross (WMF)]] ([[User talk:Sage Ross (WMF)|talk]]) 21:36, 25 September 2012 (UTC)
