What do you think about dividing meta into 2 wikis: * 1 for organizational purposes * 1 for rants, loose discussions, lists of Wikipedians by eye color and other stuff like that
Currently meta serves both function, but doesn't serve either of them well.

What about use wikimedia site as a Wiki for projects organistion ? (and Meta for all other purposes)

I do not think this is the goal of the foundation website at all.

Sure that may be better to re-organize the Meta site. Meanwhile wikimedia may have a (members only?) Wiki for fundation activities, isn't it ?

Aoinek o
Fundation activities only yes. But meta is much much much more than fundation activities and it is important not to confuse fundation activities and daily organisation, such as request for adminship on projects, because this is not a fundation activity
finally meta is open to anyone editing, freely, and I think this freedom of participation is absolutely essential.

I do not support this. Dividing is not a solution, more organisation is. I agree however, that navigation is still not very easy. I think it is slowly improving, and improved a lot thanks to categories.
Perhaps would it be necessary as well to define new namespaces within the wiki ?
Perhaps a quicker access to some categories would help (such as the categories being listed at the top in recent changes)
Internationalization of language definitly would help to navigate more quickly
Perhaps should we think over the tool bar to propose new items ?

Why would two separate wikis serve them better? I doubt that.
