In ISC terms, it is technically a "programme", which means that
there is no target finalization date but is instead ongoing.
Most people don't understand the semantic difference between the
ISC definition of "programme" and the common term "project", and the
different terms tend to get used interchangeably.
Don't get hung up on terminology. Check the ISC web site to see
the official status, but don't expect everyone else in the Universe
to always use the right official words.
