Entries in Upcoming can easily link to their discussion threads. This also acts as a protection against any possible technical faults that force people to redesign or redo their Upcoming entries without losing their discussion thread material.

One forum section for the discussion and the other one solely to make the Upcoming Projects' system work.
Much simpler, less confusing.

Also, without the Projects forum, where would mappers come to announce a brand new project? Since the Upcoming forum requires mod approval (for good reason; we don't want the site filled with porn spam one day), they wouldn't be able to post new threads.
This is definitely a great idea, though, and I'm glad to see it getting implemented. I do think we should keep it separate, though, as it is now.
I still need go to make an EXU thingy...
