This is actually something I have been meaning to bring up. When the Build 
Service was first launched I started the following projects (whos names fit 
the packages I originally put in them):

server:monitoring
server:telephony
server:messaging
network:aaa

Now, a year later, network:aaa (which is the smallest of them) is the only 
one that has a name that matches the collection of packages it contains.

server:monitoring also contains a bunch of network monitoring tools.

server:telephony contains a bunch of telephony clients as well as related 
libraries.

server:messaging also contains a couple of messaging clients.

The question is should we:
* split of a client: namespage (not my preference..)
* turn things around and create telephony:server and telephony:client etc
* leave things are they are...

Suggestions?

Cheers
