Explanation:
Hi Paul,

just two broad guesses.

First it could simply mean the tasks involved in merging several projects.

Or else: how about "proposed mergers" etc. (with diversos referring to the *etc* bit :-)

Sorry, not inspired this morning - Monday blues... best I can come up with with so little context.

Encaixos are usually those devices with blocks that kids play with in nursery school. You know, where they have to fit shapes into holes In our day they had little hammers to drive them home...
