This link

<A HREF="https://arachne.mit.edu/pdb/db.cgi/pdb.pdb_user.frontpage">All Projects</A>

provides all the projects in the database...

I thought at first that we would have to go through
https://arachne.mit.edu/show_project.html
and click delivery to get the delivery projects in
https://arachne.mit.edu/pdb/db.cgi/pdb.pdb_user.show_project

(incidentally, this points to something we may want to note--people
can't bookmark random pages in the project db, because the system
depends on you doing things in a certain order)

actually, Bruce showed me how to turn it into a "one button click"
which will cause the database to do the right thing...

<FORM ACTION="https://arachne.mit.edu/pdb/db.cgi/pdb.pdb_user.show_project" METHOD="POST">
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="Process" value="delivery">
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="practice" value="">
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="name" value=""> 
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="team_leader" value="">
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="pstatus" value="">
<INPUT TYPE="submit" NAME="this is the button" VALUE="Submit">
</FORM>

This link also does the job...

<A HREF="https://arachne.mit.edu/pdb/db.cgi/pdb.pdb_user.show_project?Process=delivery&practice=&name=&team_leader=&pstatus=&this+is+the+button=Submit">All Delivery Projects</a>

So the answer to getting all projects in the database is -- put the
link in and we've got it.

The answer to the other one is also put the link in, but the link is
a bit fancier.
