[Foundation-l] A general wiki list?

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.
