If you have multiple projects that people
associate jobs with for administrative reasons,
then it appears impossible to get fair sharing
via the share tree to ignore these projects.

That is, if you create a node immediately under
the Root node for each user, jobs that have
projects associated with them do not appear to
account against the user as far as the share tree
is concerned.  If you create project nodes with
"default" sub-nodes, the jobs magically start
accounting for themselves again.

[ a related niggle - it would be nice to be able
  to attach a "default" node directly to the
  Root node ]

This appears to be an RFE.
Shannon can you advise?

Yes, ignoring projects in the share tree would be an RFE. The current
design of the share tree policy is that projects are always considered
for purposes of ticket calculation. A job only maps to a non-project
user node if the job is not running with a project.

BTW - 6.0 supports a default node under the root node (but the above
rule still applies).

Changed the subcomponent.
