I think the scope is multimedia contribution and curation. We will be
working with the reading and search teams to improve the presentation and
discoverability if media items.
The scalers are in between, we need them for both presentation and
contribution pipelines. For the time being I'm anticipating this landing on
the editing side.

The team has some hires, and there will be some

because we acknowledge the sizable backlog of tasks in that area as well

the need to make improvements in that area to
support future work.
I'll likely look to The Performance team to help with HHVM related
activities as well.

So this is probably a good time to ask. What is the scope of the
current Multimedia team. Are they responsible for literally every
multimedia related thing, or just stuff related to "editing" (they're
in the "editing" department after all), or somewhere in the middle
