What kind of interactions do you expect across these sub-communities?

I’m thinking of questions like:

- **Do you want members in one to be able to freely participate in the others?**  
Should it _feel_ like one larger community to them? Or should it feel like they are moving between completely different communities when they participate in one vs. the other?

- **Do you want conversations in one to be able to cross over into the others?**  
For example, do you expect or want to encourage a lot of cross-linking of discussions, or quoting pieces of one conversation in the other, etc? Or do you think that kind of behavior is unlikely, not worth encouraging, or even worth discouraging?

- **Can you share any examples of the different features and functionality you expect each to use?**  
I can imagine a few different things you may have in mind here, but any examples you can share to help illustrate further what you’re thinking would be helpful.
