Could someone let me know why we need a bureaucratic process (I mean
"bureaucratic" without the connotative value) to approve new projects
when there has been exactly zero proposals since 2006 that actually
needed to be approved? (And in fact, there is serious discussion about
whether our current projects make sense, a fact which is too easily
overlooked)

I mean to say that since 2006, and perhaps even further back, there have
been no proposals which should have been approved. Why do we need a
process to handle something which, in essence, *doesn't happen*?

I'd be far more interested in discussing ways we can critically evaluate
which of our current projects should remain in the Wikimedia movement,
and which should be asked to move outside that movement to continue
their development.
