Sounds like there is enough diversity of opinion that this discussion 
should go on - first step seems to be deciding if we think the CLA and/or 
gerrit-style review is important for all artifacts deployed to 
org.gwtproject. 

For the time being, it sounds like individual groupIds are the way forward, 
with the expectation of migrating projects to org.gwtproject and 
github.com/gwtproject once they reach a certain level of quality and 
stability, once we decide what that is. As per our name use policy, that 
should fall to the steering committee to decide, but I at least would 
welcome more feedback from contributors on what those standards might look 
like.

Likewise from that name use document, we should avoid the use of 
org.gwtproject packages as well until that time. This might make migration 
a little trickier (changing packages multiple times) as we refactor various 
modules out from gwt-user. For my part, I would like to see this line 
blurred slightly or at least clarified - code which started its life in 
com.google.gwt but isn't presently "controlled" by the committee due it it 
being in progress should perhaps not be restricted in this way (in the same 
way that Vaadin ships a GWT fork, but still uses com.google.gwt packages 
for compatibility). We could phrase this in individual projects as "This 
code came from GWT, and is incubating here until it is contributed back to 
GWT", making it clear that the project is not intended to be a third party 
tool, but is using the name in good faith that this will be again part of 
GWT soon.
