It always seemed to me that people want to send threads to -project for 
them to just go away.  Once a thread goes to -project, it just whithers 
on the vine and nothing much happens.  There may be a need for -project 
but if almost no one is going to be there, there is no point sending 
threads to it.  Maybe developers should be required to subscribe to 
-project so that even if a thread is sent there, they still get to see 
the postings and deal with the issues that are being raised.
