On the talk page I suggested dropping the "G" prefix for top-level

If we rename "mediawiki/core" to just "mediawiki" it becomes a
top-level
repo and can just be "MW".

If the "VisualEditor/VisualEditor" repo becomes "VisualEditor" I
don't
see anything against naming it "VE".

I think we would set up VE as a prefix rather than dumping them under
general, so: VEWP, VEDP, VEJM (or whatever).
