Yeah I can see SIG as a useful structure too.  I'm just more familiar
with UC "teams" because of my personal history.

I do thing SIG -vs- team would impace repo naming, and I'm still going
over creation doc, so I'll let this simmer here at least until YVR lunch
time to see if there's consensus or cotroversy in the potential
contributer community.  Lacking either I think I will default to
SIG-ops-docs.

Thanks,
