That's one option.  To me, the current Extras front page has six
sections of which one is for end-users and the other five are for
contributors.  The end-user one should be merged into the
front-page/rest of the site just as Extras and Core repositories are
being merged.  The contributor pages could replace /Packaging as you
suggest or into /Contributors /Developers etc.

I can see the organizational view you want to build looking something
like this:

/ == All of Fedora
/Ambassadors
/Marketing
/Packaging
  /AdminRequests
  /DraftGuidelines
  /FESCo
  /Guidelines
  /PackagingCommittee
  /Policy

It makes logical sense.  But it does mean we have to make a lot of
changes to links on every page.  I don't see it as being a huge amount
more work to move /Packaging => /Guidelines compared to /Extras
=> /Packaging, though.  So I'll go along with anything as long as the
Guidelines continue to exist in a non-user editable location.  (Although
streamlining the creation, submission, revising, and approval of new
guidelines from non-committee folks would be nice.  /PackagingDrafts is
a start but it doesn't go far enough.)
