The point of SUL is for a single login to be usable

headaches.
The point of it may have been, but a chapter wiki not fitting into the
schema shouldn't matter. After all, the private/fishbowl wikis are
already not included in SUL, so there goes our "every Wikimedia
project".
Other chapters aren't hosted by the Foundation and don't have SUL, but
I don't think they have any problems with it: wikimedia.de,
wikimedia.fr, wikimedia.it, wikimedia.org.ar, wikimedia.org.au,
wikimedia.ch, wikimedia.cz, wikimedia.hk, wiki.media.hu,
wikimedia.or.id, wikimedia.org.il, wikimedia.tw/wikimania.tw, and
wikimedia.org.ua.
In the end, it's just whichever you decide. It seems that having your
own domain outside the WMF is probably the best option, it's the most
versatile (can make changes yourself, can easily have a public home
page, wiki for members, wiki for board, blog, internal records, etc.).
So I'd have to agree with Ray, not a deal breaker. :-)
