mergers and aquisitions

mergers and aquisitions

There has been a thread on Foundatio.nl recently where FanWiki asked to potentially join as an official Wikimedia project. This discussion resulted in an awareness of there being no process for deciding on "acquiring" existing projects (or even if that was a good idea). Should the WMF have an acquisition strategy?

Yes, I believe that in the future most of the best candidates for new Wikimedia projects will probably be existing wikis that originated outside of our structure.
