in the FAQ on the web site?  I think all the docs should go there...  the 
only bad thing is we don't get revision control on it, but it is a nicely 
managed FAQ area...

this is true...

basically it was to make it easier to get a project (not as much typing).  
also having an aki module makes more sense than having a project module 
that aki is within - sinse aki is standalone.  The lib module is 
different, since each project would depend on it, it would be easiest to 
put all common code there.

I think organizing the repos for aesthetics might not be right, it isn't a 
directory structure, it is a collection of modules.  (this isn't really a
strong argument though..)

The only hangup I have is that viewing the cvs source might become harder 
- but is this a good reason to have one module with all projects a part of 
it?
