Hi sean,

Or we have a different definition of separate :)

the project boundaries are artificial. Only one changeset was

Classes?

no this is not the purpose of projects.

use classes.

I think that you misunderstand projects and also the purpose of classes and instances.
May be you should read some of the books available on my web page like the art of object-oriented programming.
