Take an existing J2SEProject. Use the Share on Kenai menu item to create a Kenai project for it. The project now shows up with all the files marked as new (but weirdly, you cannot commit them, you can only Import into Subversion Repository - which I don't think is what I want). Now try creating a new J2SE project in a subdirectory of the one you just added to Kenai. You get a message: "Project might already exists (probably only in memory)" 1. Grammar problem: exists -> exist 2. What on earth does this mean, and what am I supposed to do about it, and why can't I create the new project?

Committing the existing code into Kenai svn does not help, nor does restarting. I cannot create a subproject of a Kenai project.
Fixed. http://hg.netbeans.org/core-main/rev/f3e0ff68606e Re. "Bizarre message" - sometimes project might be still around in memory even after closing and deleting content of project folder and this message is the last catch not to proceed to next panels of wizard. I know it's not the best message in the world, but user will not see it under normal circumstances.
