If limiting the number of TM Project Managers is due to server constraints,
this is something we can upgrade. Regarding managing the list of projects,
it is also can be made through a tagging system we have been discussing
about recently. "Community projects" could the ben easily grouped. I am not
sure is the tagging would be able to lead these new jobs to another
instanciation if we think it would make sense to have another one (same
URl, another URL?)

Regarding promoting new TM creators (=Project Managers) it makes senses to
increase their number for the advantages a M job represents and the fact it
is not yet used as it could. As I guess there may be some stats about PM
(how many jobs already created), it could be interesting to suggest to a
new promoted one to start by creating a TM job test, eg on the dev
instance.
