I've manually deleted projects once in a while when I saw that they 
weren't likely to get any content or they were by people not having cvs 
accounts. Even if these people would contribute code later, it wouldn't 
be undue to require them to recreate a project node.
That said, I'd simply delete all old project nodes.
