Heh we don't want that to happen obviously. I have to clarify my previous statement. The team doing the initial development will mainly be focusing on getting this up and running for the Wikipedias. (We will obviously keep sister-projects and projects outside Wikimedia in mind while doing that.) However if people want to help and work towards bringing Wikidata also to the sister-projects then that would be welcome from our side. And of course they will be able to use Wikidata like any other 3rd party as soon as that is possible. > Could we have one sister-projects IRC session in the near future? Questions regarding sister-projects and how they can fit into the whole Wikidata picture are obviously very welcome at the next office hours on Monday (http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikidata/Events). If there is more demand for it we can also do office hours specifically for that of course.
