I don't really know. I'm firmly in the camp that OpenStack needs to
be smaller and more tightly focused if a unitary thing called OpenStack
expects to be any good. So I'm curious about and interested in
strategies for figuring out where the boundaries are.
So that, of course, leads back to the original question: Is OpenStack
supposed to be a unitary.
As a data point, since I heard that question rhetorically asked quite a
few times over the past year... There is an old answer to that, since a
vote of the PPB (the ancestor of our TC) from June, 2011 which was never
overruled or changed afterwards:
"OpenStack is a single product made of a lot of independent, but
cooperating, components."
The log is an interesting read:

Hmm, blast from the past. I'm sad I didn't make it to that meeting.
I would (now at least) have voted for #2: OpenStack is "a collection of
independent projects that work together for some level of integration
and releases".
This is how I believe OpenStack should be seen, as I wrote on Twitter
relatively recently:
