You are correct I left out some very important cross project teams (Sorry Anne!). We call the projects that tap these shared resources today “integrated”. It seems like if we keep going down this path, we need to either: a) make “integrated” == layer1 This would be a tricky proposition because of the way it might look in the community, but it may be necessary if we are already too overloaded to handle the cross-project concerns at our current scale. b) clearly dilineate “integrated” vs layer1 in some other way This would likely involve changing the meaning of integrated to mean a bit less than it does today: just best effort for projects outside of layer1. > All the "other" projects would be able to get help and tools from those > horizontal teams, but would just not be directly taken care of.

It sounds like you are suggesting that b) has already occurred to some degree so that we should just continue along those lines? Vish
