The quote is actually "a camel is a racehorse designed by a committee". Camels are very good at surviving in the desert, but not so good at winning a horse race (not camel race). Which is the point of the saying.

That changes the meaning, but... have you ever tried to ride a horse designed by a group of Clever Individuals loosely connected by email? ;) I am afraid of even thinking of its ugliness and speed. (-: I think a committee is better than nothing, and I believe CP4E has been dropped from the agenda.
