Well, I was a little worried about bike shedding, but since you asked...:)

I'd like to change the name.  Too many folks have seemed to confuse the 
"Community Development" group's purpose to be to be a non-technical 
group that focuses on Development of a Community.  It is, in fact, the a 
group with the goal to coordinate the software development efforts of 
the community.

Here are my suggestions:

Lustre Working Group
Lustre Development Working Group
Lustre Software Development Working Group.

The new group will take a more holistic view of the Lustre software 
development life cycle.  Features will be treated as another part of 
software development.

I don't think that will be too much of a problem.  I can handle the wiki 
page, I'll get our web czar to update the opensfs.org pages.

I would like to make sign up to the new group's mailing list voluntary. 
  I will make announcements on the old lists that they are going away, 
and convert them to read-only (for the archives).

If I don't still know the correct passwords to OpenSFS's dreamhost 
account, I will engage VTM folks to get the appropriate changes made.
