Yea I guess I was. Many projects will want to have multiple
repositories, or at least the option to have them, in a commons.
Useful for feature branches or for old historic branches. You start
sticking all of even just extragear/multimedia into one project and
that would get messy.

Also while notifications are still kind of a mess, it is easily
possible to subscribe to all the action in a given project via RSS
(like, I follow all Phonon changes with a RSS to email notifier). And
in a future revision of the Gitorious notification framework, it would
seem a reasonable assumption that all the repos in the same project
have the same people working in them.
