I was asking this myself for a long time. Then I just started to move things to 
pharo-contributions because I could not come up with a better idea. I‘m not 
convinced that having more organizations on github will help.

I personally wouldn‘t do it from the start. Usually this is kind of a premature 
optimization to put groups and permissions and all of that on the table.
If it comes to groups it comes to permissions and the management of them. You 
might try to solve a problem that might not even have. But you put the burden 
of managing memberships and permissions and that prevents collaboration to some 
extent

So my golden rule to this is that if you don‘t have real good reason to add 
something like this organization, just don‘t. Wait until there is a problem. At 
that point you know what problem you have and you might have an appropriate 
idea how to solve it. This is very hard to do a priori.

But we need indeed a general approach how to handle that. Every time someone 
asks me to be added to pharo-contributions I‘m thinking about if the setup is 
ok.
