You should not have to be a packager to join a special interest group.
 The path of least resistance is that people first join a SIG and then
become a packager, not the other way around.

Getting people to sign up for special interest groups is a good way to
recruit new packagers.

I would actually consider PackageMaintainers as a SIG in itself.  It
makes more sense to me to have /SIG/PackageMaintainers rather than
/PackageMaintainers/SIGs
