Actually, the FLA is suitable for any project. It's the type of
comprehensive document that is normally only created for 'large'
projects, but that has more to do with the resources available to
smaller projects than anything else.
The FLA should provide an excellent solution for smaller projects that
are looking for a way to ensure copyright coherency.
