That was something that I figured would also need to be planned for.
Where
do these packages live? Who is caring for them? My initial viewpoint is that it would be nice if the people on a desktop were co-maintainers on
the
package set if it were in EPEL.
I proposed exactly this with the fedora maintainer of MATE. He's agreed and tagged it appropriately. It's working its way through the EPEL build system now.

So lets do a bit of the groundwork so that we can take this SIG to the board for vote/approval. Who else has the time and desire to contribute to this SIG?
I do. What else needs to be done to make a formal SIG?
At this point, people who will take ownership of it. 2-3 people with the time it takes to pull this off. Board members can act as mentors to provide guidance or help, but not 'own' it.
Given there were several folks responding to this thread, I don't think that would be an issue.
