:Wow, this is a bit of a surprise to me. I thought one of the failures of Wikipedia was that they set off to launch the project before really thinking out what they OUGHT to do for it to be successful in fulfilling the stated mission. I feel like a "let's get this hammered out this weekend" approach would be ill advised, but... I'm also a spontaneous person at heart. How do others feel about it? We're still drawing in new people, so that's a sign (to me) that disgruntled WRers already "know" that they have a place to come, at least for the moment. Personally, I'd think a more reasonable target date for launch would be November 1 or something like that. -- [[User:MyWikiBiz|MyWikiBiz]] 14:01, 10 October 2008 (PDT)

==Invitation-only==
I propose that participation should be by invitation only. This way, people won't feel as bad for not being allowed to join: no one has to be "blocked" or "banned" (public disgrace and all that.)[[User:Proabivouac|Proabivouac]] 17:14, 10 October 2008 (PDT)
