We are asking for at least one person from each organized group to
volunteer to be the Discussion Coordinator.
What qualifies as one "organized group"? Are there additional related ones, beyonf the "GLAM community"?

Ciao Nemo,
To quote Nicole:
Track A addresses not only officially registered affiliates but also semi-organized groups, like for example Wiki Loves Monuments.
GLAMwiki a.k.a. Cultural Partnerships, is not a formally defined group in the sense of being a Wikimedia affiliate organisation* but its the kind of specific interest 'sub-community' within the movement that often has its own needs and views. Of course, the individuals within any group might actually feel affiliated to several overlapping kinds of identities within the movement - and that's ok.
