Getting away from computing related collectives:

assembly - lends itself to sub-assembly, etc

faction - When these servers over here disagree with those servers
over there, such as in Xen vs KVM configurations

schism - a fancier-and-harder-to-spell-and-pronounce faction

coalition - when the Xen vs KVM schism gets patched up and instead
they separate based on vi vs emacs or Gnome vs KDE


And my favorite (partly because it is only 4 characters!):

bloc - a group with a common interest, sometimes in voting situations
