Unless each Wikipedia is to purchase and administer its own servers, and choose its own name (other than "Wikipedia"), I don't see how we can have projects not be subordinate, at least in a legal and technical sense, to the main organization.

Nor do I have any desire to ever see that happen. We are an _international_, _global_ project, not a series of _nationalistic_ projects following our own separate paths.

It is very important that steps be taken to ensure that those who don't speak English have their interests well represented, there is no question about that. But ensuring that is not the same thing as going down a path of balkanization.
