Cursory look shows several "home" groups that control the website access
(not sure why we ever had these), and several that are related to "third
parties" that are contributing ports of various parts but these folks are
not actually considered to be committers on the project. There are various
other fine grained things that can likely be combined.
John's offer to drive the merging of Platform groups/projects/components is
awesome. I think we should let him do his thing and see what comes up.

Doesn't that just make things confusing for everybody?
