Why not just point it to a page onwiki somewhere? that way everyone
can contribute!
(we could even semi-protect it I guess...)

Thanks for working on this. You probably want to
talk to Quim and others
in his team about this. He's been doing related work:

Will do :) It's a nice page, I hadn't checked it out before! I should
be able to steal some from there
And some of my old notes about this:

It's unclear whether you want to only focus on technologies or if you want
to also focus on (for example) re-using content from Wikimedia wikis.
"What can I do for Wikimedia?" --> re-use our content via XML dumps and
the MediaWiki API.
I think for now we should limit scope and only focus on the
'contribute code to Wikimedia' part, rather than the 'use our data in
interesting ways' part. The sit is, after all, what can I do *for*
wikimedia/wikipedia/mediawiki, rather than *with*. We can get those
domains too, but I think that's a much larger project than what I'd
want to sign up for right now :)
I'm thinking of limiting it to *just* developers to begin with, and
add localization afterwards. Thoughts?
