Defining Collectives
http://wiki.bluga.net/pear/collectives
Collectives have supreme power over packages within the collective in terms of API decisions, QA, documentation, defining the way collaboration works in the collective, choosing a collective leader or leaders, self-promotion of packages within the collective and assigning mentors to new developers of packages within the collective.
We need to define what packages belong in each collective, current categories won't work
