I have no strong opinion on this... but since you asked...

Community projects (formerly labs) used to be a more or less informal 
thing in my mind and in that context the wiki page that we got was 
enough. However if we want to spend more efforts reviewing those 
community projects and promoting them (via the osgeo.org site for 
instance) then I guess I'd agree that it would make sense to have more 
formal documents on osgeo.org describing what community projects are 
about, what the rules/expectations are, etc.
