[Foundation-l] Project proposals on meta

Hello,

There are a lot of project proposals floating around on Meta-Wiki, most 
only short descriptions of an idea someone had. Some months ago, I 
collected all this stuff and moved it to a central page:
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Proposals_for_new_projects

More can be found in:
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Proposed_projects

Since many people complained to me about Meta being an unusable 
labyrinth, I'd like to do a little bit of cleanup and wondered if we 
could just move this list to wikicities (jimbo's pet project where 
people can set up wikis on their own) and direct new entries on meta of 
the type "oh there is no wiki on ... what about ...?" to wikicities:
http://www.wikicities.com/index.php/Proposed_wikis

We will be busy the next time with building up Commons and Wikinews, the 
two big new projects and for most proposals on this page I either don't 
see a future as a Wikimedia project (at least not in this state) or they 
could be done within the framework of an existing project.

What do you think?

greetings,
elian
