The list is finally up. All interested in general discussions about
wikis may join via
I'll start with announcing list on other places as soon as possible.
Also, anyone interested in the initial managing the project may contact me.

Finally, the project is almost started. However, we
need to wait for a
while for a mailing list. Wiki is up
(
http://www.ibiblio.org/wikiworld/), even it is not the central part
of the project. (However, it is useful for gathering ideas from the
mailing list.)
Starting FAQ is available here:
http://www.ibiblio.org/wikiworld/index.php/Wiki_World:FAQ
Some more explanations (including an FAQ) are available here:

And there are a couple of issues related to Wikimedia:
- When the list would be ready, I think that it should stay somewhere
at the first half of the page
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Mailing_lists/overview (aka
http://lists.wikimedia.org/). Any objection?
- While wiki is important only as a repository of resources and ideas,
I think that it should also be mentioned *somewhere* inside of
Wikimedia/Wikipedia manuals. However, I don't have an idea where.
I'll make a wider announce when list becomes ready.

I think that community needs a general wiki list.
Such list would be
used for wiki projects in general, not only for WM projects.
For example, if someone wants to discuss about his/her idea for a new
wiki project, (s)he needs a general place to do that. In general, such
talks on wikipedia-l or foundation-l lists are off topic. Or if people
want to talk in general about wiki projects, it should be discussed
there.
And I think that it should be hosted by WM because it is the center of
wiki world.
Anyone against it? :)
