Description Kirill Sorokin 2006-11-24 06:03:26 UTC 
Currently it's impossible to create a project which will reside in a directory
other than its name. That's not really convenient, since I like to give long
descriptive names for projects, while keeping the directory name short. E.g.
"NBI Admin Server" vs "server" (which resides in nbi/admin/server, and hence is
easily understood).

It would be VERY beneficial if it was possible to set the project's directory
separately from its name in one step (without having to perform a Create,Rename
combo).
