26032	Where does `manage.py` belong: to Application or to Project?	Thomas Güttler	nobody	"First: Thanks to Tim Graham for fixing the ""app vs project"" issue (https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/25748)

Here is the current part about ""application"":

{{{
The term **application** describes a Python package that provides some set of
features. Applications :doc:`may be reused </intro/reusable-apps/>` in various
projects. A project's root directory (the one that contains ``manage.py``) is
usually the container for all of a project's applications which aren't
installed separately.
}}}

Where does ""manage.py"" belong?  to Application or to Project?

My personal point of view is that it belongs to ""project"", since there can only be one script with this name.

I think the above part in the docs needs to be improved. Maybe just move the sentence to the previous part.
