Sound good the idea!.

There some one thing to worry me. I dont think the number of people who
contribuite with Asterisk is  near to Node.js.

Create more group may be split to much of the people to who contribuite
now into the Asterisk.

For other hang. I think there  should be a group that get/help/guide the new people who have the intention to contribute with the Asterisk. Or organize a bug squashing or feature pushing where new people can experience the process how contribuite like that break the fear to push the first commit and know a little the code/documentation of project.

Regards!
