Shawn filed bug 9202 to support this. Basically, as with the RBAC definitions that need to get delivered, we'll have an SMF service that merges the individual project definitions into /etc/project, and that service can be a dependency of the service that requires the use of the service. We'll probably want a single service to be the choke point for all services that deliver things like this (would a milestone be appropriate?). Danek
