How about the evolution of gnome, i.e. how it all started? We cannot
guarantee somebody won't come up with an app/project/product name that
won't clash with other "normal" content...

Hmm. So we are talking about leaving wgo/projects/* _as is_ for this
release, and all this fuss is about a simple list of software, whose
usefulness is debated? And so far that was all the discussion that
involved the contents the new of wgo? That's a surprise. I must have
misunderstood something badly...

My humble vote is against a bastard solution where both old and new
"CMS" content is served under www.gnome.org/. I consider this a
show-stopper for the new release. If we are not ready, we should not
release.
