the current project.

TIP: You will only see projects to which you have been granted access:
public projects, and private projects on which you are a team member.


How related projects are identified
===================================

To determine which projects should be listed in Related Projects:

#. The recommendation engine scans the current project's files
   and weights the terms found to determine which of them to use
   for the likeness search.

#. The engine performs a search, with extra weight given to the
   "uses" and "imports" keywords.

#. The engine finds the files and projects that are most similar
   to the current project and scores the results.

#. The top-scoring matches are displayed in Related Projects.
   Only public projects and private projects to which you have
   access are included.
