That's a realistic, if somewhat cynical view.  It doesn't seem unreasonable for 
those
who are inspired to give it a shot and see what happens.  Personally, I think 
the 
question "how best to collaborate on code" is a solved problem: 
http://github.com.  A
wiki is not the complete answer to the question, though it can play a part.

There have been many, many, attempts over the years (from BIX to usenet to 
U2users) to
do a "pick version of gnu".  Maybe the time is finally right for it to work?
