This is all incredibly encouraging news! Thanks for the update. Speaking as someone from a mainly PvE guild that is split across servers, we are waiting patiently for Phase 1 to be completed.

The idea of links for NA servers work great, because everyone speaks either English or Spanish as a majority language. When links are made across EU servers, for example, we have German speaking worlds linked with French speaking ones, both servers have a hard time cooperating with each other. Both servers are left weaker. The Francophone players do not understand German, and will not follow the German server commanders. The same also happens the other way around, the German players take little interest in a commander that speaks only French. We all know this is not the optimal solution. I would think though, that linking only German speaking worlds with each other, French, and Spanish servers linked the same way, would at least foster greater cooperation between servers. At least then we can communicate with each other. I'm looking forward to the World Restructuring Beta 4 very much, and it will be a new experience for me anyway to participate in WvW in English... XD

Many thanks for the update. I'm the WvW officer for my guild, so I've been waiting for the next restructuring beta to roll out, as our guild is spread out across the EU servers. The news is disappointing, but I appreciate the transparency you are all bringing to the situation, and I think it for the best that these critical issues are resolved so that we can have the WvW restructuring beta that we are waiting for, free of the issues that were very present in the first beta roll-out. I think it's important for everyone to remember that this is a beta. Not everything is going to be perfect the first time around. The fact that we are receiving information about the issues that need to be resolved and transparency in the decisions not to roll it out again on 12 November in favor of delaying it to ensure that we have the best beta experience possible, is a clear indication that they have taken the time out to explain to us players exactly what is going on. We are waiting with our Blueprints ready, when you are!
