We can probably use the tag feature of Phabricator to associate repositories to projects. This would allow us to tag projects as #extragear #multimedia as an example - giving us a different form of structure. It doesn't directly support the tree structure. (I will add that the tree structure support in Chiliproject is part sysadmin-hack, and is a big part of the upgrade problems associated with it as the changes needed to support it are both highly invasive and in an area which is regularly changed). > > But https://showoff.phab.io/project/ only shows a list of projects.

Projects can't contain other projects with Phabricator i'm afraid. > > Bye Thanks, Ben > > -- > Milian Wolff > m...@milianw.de > http://milianw.de
