Have the "How Tos" for JSM adjusted to the new rebranding of "Projects" to "Spaces"?

It appears that JIRA has officially rebranded "Projects" as "Spaces" and I noticed this change in JSM, but when I look for how to create things such as portals in the Atlassian support page the new terminology is not reflected in the "How Tos" which is a little confusing. Is this suppose to be adjusted, or should I be looking in a different place for "How Tos"?

Hey @alejandra.ortiz , 

As you mentioned, Atlassian recently made the change to refer to Jira projects as Spaces. They also changed the terminology of tasks from "Issues" to "Work Items". Atlassian is working their way through updating all their documentation to reference the new terminology, but it could take some time.

For now, I would recommend mentally replacing "Project" with "Space" in your head, while we wait for Atlassian to update all of their documentation. I've still seen a few places where "Issue" is referenced instead of "Work Item", so it could take a little while for everything to get updated.

Hope this helps,

Robert
