Once a thread goes to -project, it just whithers=20 on the vine and nothing much happens. There may be a need for -project=20 but if almost no one is going to be there, there is no point sending=20 threads to it. Maybe developers should be required to subscribe to=20 -project so that even if a thread is sent there, they still get to see=20 the postings and deal with the issues that are being raised.
