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

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.
