I would have nominated "cluster of nerds"

Subject: [NTSysADM] OT: What do you call a group of IT professionals
Sent: 21 Nov 2014 16:12

During a discussion today the question was raised,  "What do you call a group 
of IT professionals"?

Oxford dictionary came up with:

a blush of boys
a drunkship of cobblers
a hastiness of cooks
a stalk of foresters
an observance of hermits
a bevy of ladies
a faith of merchants
a superfluity of nuns
a malapertness (= impertinence) of pedlars
a pity of prisoners
a glozing (= fawning) of taverners

Nothing for IT.

The most popular suggestion was "a packet".  :-)
