Well, fyi, the GMLTC doesn't really follow any of these types of layout
organization.  We would be something more like "layout modularity", since our
layout is designed so that structure, themes, look & feel - all flow from one
module onto the next.  It would be extremely difficult to fit someone else's
module into our layout display.

I usually think of the GMLTC as using a form of baseplate modularity---but
without the modules (since GMLTC 'modules' are artefacts of building and
transportation issues, rather than representing contributions by distinct
members).
