I have an idea.

Lets get a team of people to work on a fork of compiz, call it "Beryl"
And then get a team to work on Compiz

And after a.. erm nevermind ;)

But this will help you imagine how hard it'd be to decide which team
would help the other one ;)
(please note that there's absolutely no offence against anyone in this
post, it's just the best example to show that having two teams merging
to work on one thing which is even just a bit different than what they
were working on is definitely hard)
