> Currently, there is a single "name" attribute on a project that serves double-duty.  It represents the symbolic "name" of the project that is available as a property and is used in logging for that project.  It also represents either an absolute path name or a relative path name from the run directory that CruiseControl uses to locate the .ser file for the project.  This can become problematic in setups where (for whatever reason) the user doesn't want to save the project files in the run directory itself.
> The specific suggestion here is to allow two attributes on a project: name (required) and dir (optional).  If only name is provided, it behaves as it does today.  However, if "dir" is provided, then for for the purpose of locating the .ser file, it treats the project name as relative to the "dir" attribute.
