Bug Description

Everything under the "fdo" project should be moved to the "freedesktop.org" project

Looking at /products/dbus, it's advertised as a product of the freedesktop.org project, along with xlibs, xapps, KDrive, and a couple of others. However, going to /projects/freedesktop.org shows GStreamer as the only product under fd.o. This experience is duplicated in /malone/projects/freedesktop.org.

dbus, kdrive, and all the other products, should be listed here.

There are two projects in Launchpad, "freedesktop.org" and "fdo". Their descriptions are "freedesktop.org" and "The Freedesktop.org Project" (which gets lowercased in the project portlet on the relevant product pages).

So gstreamer belongs to the freedesktop.org project, whereas dbus and friends belong to the fdo project.

Note that there is also a gstreamer project, but this is not where you find the gstreamer product. Instead, you find only the gst-plugins product.

This can all be fixed by a person with the appropriate permissions to go to +review for each product and move them to the correct project.

Then please reopen this bug on the right component with 'everything under the "fdo" project should be moved to the "freedesktop.org" project', as I have no permission to edit anything in Launchpad, including this bug.
