Its great that it does this, but I strongly disagree that it fixes the
bug.

The duplicates:
https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/launchpad-registry/+bug/137793 talks
about the related *teams* to a project.
https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/launchpad-foundations/+bug/191111
likewise.
https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/launchpad-registry/+bug/201122 again!.

Participating in official applications is not at all related to being
invited to join the discussion mailing list, or the bug mgmt team. One
can observe what launchpad is missing by looking at what launchpad
metadata users of launchpad document outside it, or in the project
summary.
