I meant to ask this last week and it may be documented somewhere already (if so, just reply with a link), but I'm having a little trouble wrapping my head around Toolserver --> Tool Labs right now. The Toolserver is a pool of shared resources, with a few roots, and a structure that's largely single user. That is, each Toolserver user gets his or her own directory inside /home and then works in that area. Wikimedia Labs, as I understand it, is generally a pool of shared resources, but the idea is to create virtual machines that each individually have roots and only a few users per virtual machine (i.e., per project). My confusion is how this "tools" project within Wikimedia Labs will be structured.
