The Wikimedia Foundation created a team for the rolling out of the trial, a testing site was created to test the configuration, it is used since September 2009.
Situation
The team in charge of rolling out the trial has announced they were in pre-rollout phase. The rollout is expected in the next few weeks.
Only flagged protection will be part of the trial, patrolled revisions has not been developed yet.
The configuration as requested, flagged protection with reviewer usergroup and option to deactivate autoreview, is currently enabled on the testing site and fairly stable.
For some time the team wanted to deploy for the trial a version with no reviewer usergroup and give to autoconfirmed users review rights while the community had repeatedly rejected this possibility.[1][2][3][4] It was later reverted to the original implementation.
