No, you're definitely right. I guess I haven't looked at the full list of projects in a while =)
And I wasn't in any way questioning whether the project you were proposing deserves to be posted. Actually I was questioning whether the project *I* was mentioning deserved to be posted. Obviously there are similarities between the two, but I think it was more of a self-doubt sort of issue. Could something I worked on actually be considered useful to others? I guess that's the question I was asking myself, and hoping to have answered here (and it was!).
