I've put some initial brainstorming notes about how this could be done here:
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia.org

Please weigh in :-)

Nice.

We'll add this to the discussions of the new Sister Projects Committee.

Erik,

This proposal has been circulating for three years. Let's just do it.

I didn't know there was a proposal to rename Meta and supersede it, in
favor of another wiki.

As far as merging the dead wikis and utilizing www.wikimedia.org go, I
think it's a great idea. I am however, against renaming and superseding
Meta for this purpose. Meta has its own community. It's used for a lot of
different things, stewards, translations, policy pages. A rename and move,
will have more implications than what are being considered in the proposal.

Regards
Theo
