+1. Aerohenry ;) IMHO Best to have single website address (it can even have
2 communities, project labels etc) for all work we do.
MCP will be the common element that will join all community projects
together so it's make sense to aggregate them in one place.
It may also help with all documentation efforts. Lots of people already
maintaining projects for both communities.
