Clear message

Anchor(project-group) Project group: Project groups allow you to gather several Launchpad projects together. Each project within a group inherits the group's preferences regarding bug tracking, translation and security policy. An example project group is Launchpad itself, with Blueprint, Translations and the Bug Tracker as projects within the group.

Anchor(name-project) Name (project): This is the unique short name that Launchpad uses to identify a project. It is used in URLs and when registering a bug against a project. Example: "blueprint" in https://launchpad.net/blueprint``` for Launchpad's Blueprint Tracker.

Anchor(display-name) Display name: Projects, teams and individuals in Launchpad are usually referred to by their display name. This is distinct from the Name, which is mostly used in URLs. Example: Mark Shuttleworth's display name is Mark Shuttleworth, whereas his Launchpad name is sabdfl.
