What decides whether or not we
have Wikistalk as a project may be as simple as the common sense judgement of the people who decide. If any project proposal is really new, how can there possibly be a pre-existing policy about it?
OK... except that Erik specifically stated that these mission and vision statements would be the things cited in explaining why WMF would or would not support WikiFoo.
Are the existing projects exempt from this? I think that's a great idea (although I can see it being very difficult for Wikipedia). Are there guidelines for what a charter should cover?
You make it look like you are looking for answers from everyone else but yourself. If such a charter is a good idea, then maybe the niext step could be to develop what it should contain.
Well, if you don't ask, you never know. And I hate reinventing the wheel. But it seems it's not the most relevant thing right now.
