I agree with John's comments as not all projects related to Core should fall under a single umbrella but I think there could be some "projects" that could be beneficial.

An example could be a Customer/Contact service that expands the knowledge of a "tenant" without any Core system needing to know anything more. These types of things could then enhance things such as the dashboard by extending functionality.

For example, I know of many open source projects that use swift (swauth, slogging, cyberduck, all the rackspace language bindings, several iOS apps, a few dashboards), and I can't seem to see why they would benefit by being grouped into one umbrella.

Agreed. This seems like something that would likely be better as a
page or pages in the wiki.
