A test server with a significant number of real projects would be just
what I need to continue my p3 work. I understand why the .net server
is sacrosanct, and yet the .org server has insufficient data. The test
server is great for working on the site code for managing projects
but inadequate for writing code to analyze projects.

I see a lot more development down the road for programs that are 
not interface-related, but are under-the-hood making the site run
more efficiently. If I'm right, that's one justification for choosing
Carlo's first option.
