Work item customization requirements (or possibly security) would be my driving 
force as well, but I find this more the exception than the rule, depending upon 
how siloed the organization is of course.  But I don't want to take this 
discussion too far afield.

A customer of me did also little team projects, but regrets this decision now 
and they created per system / application / project a team project now. This is 
also driven by the fact that multiple teams have different customization needs. 
So my rule of thump is to give each development team its own team project.

However in your case I would have one team project for all tools and utility 
applications, because you don't have any benefit of creating multiple ones

Onderwerp: RE: TFS Practices

As a rule we typically recommend very few team projects for most organizations 
so this never really comes up.  Yes, all the bug tracking is in one team 
project, but the team filters by area and iteration.  Separate 
sites/bugs/reports for every project can be too isolated to a fault, e.g, no 
way to have project plans span team projects, and end up copying all sorts of 
documents from SharePoint site to SharePoint site.  == Just my 2 cents worth.

Hey All,

Just looking for other peoples ideas as to how you structure you projects…

If you have some small applications that don’t really fit the requirements for 
a full blown project then do you just create a “Stuff I need in Source Control” 
project and add the source code for each of these applications, or do you 
create a project for each of these applications

Eg I have created some installer projects for installing the Reporting Services 
Printer client (2005 and 2008) and these don’t really have the need for bug 
tracking etc…but do want then under source control
