That could be a good idea as it would make it easier
for people to understand.  A project is a defined set
of tasks, with a start and a finish date.  A workspace
could be something that is indefinate (common
documents, knowledge base, etc.)  It might be a bit of
effort in the programming side, but it could make a
big difference for the end-users.

That could also tie into the forum request, where a
forum could be another "project type".
