I think profile directory, makes sense in the context of a user's
profile, e.g. preferences, etc. -- as in Mozilla. However, Chandler is a
very different beast, and one of its principle hallmarks is the idea
that everything is kept in a single large repository (even preferences
could be stored there). So using the Mozilla terminology doesn't seem to
make much sense. I'm not that attached to repository directory, but I
think we need a better name than profile directory. Do you have any
other suggestions?

Forgot to say that I am not terribly attached to the 'profile directory'
term, it was just a carry over from Mozilla. However, 'repository
directory' makes me think of __repository__ directory, so I think it
would be misleading. Another reason why repository directory doesn't
feel right is because, at least for now, we have other files in there as
well.
