Like yak-shaving and dogfooding among software developers circles, cat-herding is a colourful idiom common in community development circles.

Consider that we're all fiercely independent beings. Like cats! So in the absence of a formal decision-making structure that everyone has agreed to follow, trying to get people to all pull in the same direction, to achieve shared goals, can be like herding cats.

No offence is meant to any human beings (or cats!)
