Alright, let's see. Sorry, this got off the radar.

I assume that reflects the code architecture? Is there some scheme so a
non-developer could in theory understand how things are supposed to work?

Regarding ZIM renderer, there is already an openZIM product:
https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/describecomponents.cgi?product=openZIM - how
does this differentiate?

What would be component descriptions? 
I have no idea what "Bundler" and "Service" do and how I could tell...
In general, see
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Bug_management/Project_Maintainers#To_add_a_project_or_component
for required info.

Currently the description for "Collection" at
https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/describecomponents.cgi?product=MediaWiki%20extensions
says:

Page collection extension for PDF/EPUB/ODT/OpenZIM/Okawix generation via
PediaPress's mwlib backend (Homepage). Primarily for the Special:Book frontend.
Note: There is an upstream bug tracker at http://pediapress.com/code/
maintained by PediaPress folks separately. 

...which boils down to https://github.com/pediapress

I'd prefer to point people to https://github.com/pediapress instead and explain
how they can realize that they should go there (proposals?).
