So "Merov Linden" is "we" the open source developers?  Not a Linden?

The wiki page has a Note! and a Warning! that basically say don't 
believe anything you read there.  Concerning "projects" all it says is
> linden/projects/* Later on, Linden Lab wanted to have a more serious project that was more of a shared effort that they were conducting with an external vendor in the public repository, so they created the projects area.
