Hello Wayne,
as you said, a flat organization is simpler to maintain: we were rather thinking about a kind of tagging system on projects, helping to filter and browse them.
That’s how we could implement the logical view you are talking about.
Beyond that, I am not sure Polarsys members will have enough resources to participate to too many committees. There are already the steering committee, an architecture committee, various PPC and PMC… So I guess only one TLP PMC is enough for now J

Objet : Re: [polarsys-iwg] Draft Top Level Project Proposal for review
The "Project Organization" section lists three different categories of project. Each of these categories seems like it might be appropriate as a top-level project with a separate PMC.
Do you intend that each of these categories is part of a hierarchy of projects?
Or is this more of a logical organization of projects that are otherwise flat?
FWIW, the Modeling project is engaging in a restructuring that will remove most/all of the mid-level "container" projects and flatten the project hierarchy. I believe that this is due--at least in part--to the fact that tidy hierarchical categorization of projects is relatively hard to maintain and navigate.
