I've always envisioned the "projects" page being more of the "here are
the supported, released, major projects within Horde that are of 
general interest and applicable to all supported platforms" (okay, I know 
that not all of them have always been released, but...)

The CVS modules page then kind of picks up all the modules in CVS; it includes
the "projects" page ones, but also includes the "still being developed," the
"minor" modules, the "not-yet-ready for prime-time" modules, the platform or
installation specific modules, etc.

I know there isn't really a true line to separate these groups, but that's
just my own thought process as to the two pages...

Agreed.

"TAD (Technology Attachment Disorder) is an unshakable, impractical devotion
to a brand, platform, product line, or programming language. It's relatively
harmless among the rank and file, but when management is afflicted the damage
can be measured in dollars. It's also contagious -- someone with sufficient
political clout can infect an entire organization."
