In fact, what Hisham wrote above ("ease [...] into the codebase, meet
with [...] community", etc.) is exactly the purpose of the
microproject, so what Hisham is calling a "nanoproject" *is* what has
already been called a "microproject".
More importantly, the microprojects list exists merely to suggest some
possibilities for newcomers who might otherwise have difficulty coming
up with their own idea for a small change to the project; applicants
need not restrict themselves only to ideas suggested by the list. If
Hisham has his own idea for such a change, then that serves the same
purpose and would be equally applicable.
