There is an ongoing discussion in order to integrate more
OSM-applications to the main site. But the same problem applies to the
discussions, votings and solutions. 

Not only the OSM software, but also the discussions and votings about
OSM are dispersed to many locations (i.e. forums, mailing lists,
OSM-Wiki, websites etc.). Every "group" does its own thing, discusses
the same subject and votes or agrees to different solutions. One needs
countless accounts and countless passwords in order to participate.
This mailing list here and the following location is one of the
examples:
http://osm.uservoice.com/forums/41047-general?lang=en

It would be wise, to bundle the discussions to one location. Because
this cannot be done for all languages, there should be !!ONE!!
"official" location, where all the language discussions and votings
are under !!ONE!! "official" umbrella. A good example is Wikipedia,
where all the discussions, votings and solutions are done and
published at Wikipedia itsself. A appropriate solution should be found
for OSM as well.
