[Foundation-l] Wikijunior - Wikispecies, Mk 2?

The minutes of the last board meeting suggested that money was being
accepted to found a Wikijunior project. Now, while I can understand
that it wasn't entirely initiated by the board, being approached by an
outside foundation at all, it seems that once again, it's been decided
at a board-level, and there's going to be no discussion in the
community as to whether we actually should have a Wikijunior project
at all. If I remember correctly, this has been discussed many times
before - and has not generally received a good response. Yet now I
hear that it's going ahead anyway.

I just hope that this isn't going to be a repeat of the Wikispecies
saga. If we are going to fork the project,  it is not that hard to
throw together a proposal, ala Wikinews - or at least publicly discuss
the darn thing first.
