It would be great if such a thing could be integrated with a multilingual
meta.wiki (the main mailing list is no longer very useful with so many daily

all encyclopedia projects should be on the same wiki - meta should be a
separate wiki for technical and ideological reasons).

How about just have it so that anybody logged into meta is also logged into
its integrated bbs?
