I think being listed as a pop-up team would definitely facilitate
getting mentioned in TC reports, community newsletters or other
high-vsibility community communications. It would help getting space to
meet at PTGs, too.

None of those things were impossible before... but they were certainly
easier to achieve for people with name-recognition or the right
connections. It was also easier for things to slip between the cracks.

I agree that we should consider adding processes that would facilitate
going through the steps you described... But I don't really want this to
become a bureaucratic nightmare hindering volunteers stepping up to get
things done. So it's a thin line to walk on :)
