Anything which is usable by all Wikimedia project needs to be at a project-neutral domain. Would it not be odd to have Wikipedia's images at images.wikibooks.org?
Yes, about as odd as having Wikipedia's images at images.wikimedia.org, right?
Because we are all part of Wikimedia. In an offlist post to me you also added your support to moving meta to the wikimedia.org domain. Moving mail.wikipedia.org is a natural extension of that and it would then be logical to depreciate @wikipedia.org for @wikimedia.org.
O.k., I'm not against any of this. Meta, in particular, is a real curiosity these days. No one seems to know what what it's for.
I don't disagree with any of the rest of what you wrote, either.
