We should probably clarify what we mean by "project" and "application".

I think of an application as all the code that will run against a particular set of dependencies.

A project is just a distribution, which may depend on other distributions (modules, really).

An application will consist of one or more related projects.

All the projects within an application will share a common lpan.

But each application will have its own lpan.
