Couldn't one call package designing a project?
Sure, a package can depend on other packages, but that's true for any
"project". And when I'm building a package, I'm mostly editing the source
files of this package in parallel. You can even tell which files are in the
same project *within* a rkt source file, by looking at the `require`s.

I'd be happy to have an official automatic generation of the info.rkt with
dependencies and doc stubs and other small things related to package design
(as as been done by others). I can definitely understand that it's not your
priority, but merely dismissing the idea "projects" altogether seems
strange.

Or maybe I'm misunderstanding the idea here?
