I also noticed that you decided not to use the project concept to 
replace the domain concept as was preliminary discussed in 
http://lists.osafoundation.org/pipermail/chandler-dev/2006-May/005999.html 
and other communications. Whereas there are few technical limits to what 
a domain name can be, I kind of liked the simplicity of the project 
concept as proposed by me and pje.
