FYI I see this thread referencing the GDAL github team organization. As 
far as I know, nobody has "designed" it with deep thoughts. It has the 
current structure most likely as an accident of history... If I were to 
design it, I would keep it simple and stupid. With git workflows, the 
concept of "committer" as in SVN era is kinda irrelevant. You just need 
a sufficient number of people with appropriate push rights to merge the 
flow of incoming PRs, but if you have more than 10 people with push 
rights in a single repo, that is already quite big. My 2 cents, and 
running away as I've no idea how the GRASS team works ;-)
