What's the difference?  Or, more precisely, what would the 'subproject
using the components' be other than a set of committers for the
component that are also involved in other projects that want to use it?

I don't see how in practice there is any reality to the notion of
'subproject using...' as different from 'actual committers'.

I still think its a good model - to me, it would have similar status as
any other Commons subproject in that the participants within make the
decisions for what goes on within.
