In which case the log message is somewhat misleading. In any case, the data could still be kept in projects.json and the projects.js could read it. That would still solve the issue of only having a single source of the data, and it would allow the data to be used by other projects (which was another reason for having it in the first place). > if and when a build will replace the javascript it would be nice to base it > on projects.json, however so far I have not heard anybody volunteer to make > that happen.
