I believe the TC pages are necessary. Projects can be under their sponsoring TC. However, I've heard that it's possible to have different table of content listings for the same page.

I believe the TC pages are necessary. Projects can be under their sponsoring TC. However, I've heard that it's possible to have different table of content listings for the same page. That would be useful. Robert Grant
