Why is Basic project app not available on Github?

I am a little confused as what is the best way to upgrade your pinax project.

A year or more ago I had a project which was a copy of base project and the requirements.txt looks like this -

# base.txt is a pip requirements file which describes the necessary
# distributions required to run this project. If you need something that is
# project specific not listed here use project.txt. You can, of course, update
# versions of distributions here if needed.

--extra-index-url=http://dist.pinaxproject.com/dev/
--extra-index-url=http://dist.pinaxproject.com/alpha/
--extra-index-url=http://dist.pinaxproject.com/fresh-start/

Django==1.3.1
Pinax
django-debug-toolbar==0.8.5
django-staticfiles==1.1.2
django_compressor==1.0.1
django-mailer==0.2a1
django-email-confirmation==0.2
django-timezones==0.2
pytz==2011n
django-openid==0.3a1
python-openid==2.2.5
metron==0.1
pinax-theme-bootstrap==0.1.2

I did some work back then but now before continuing, want to upgrade to a project from base and not just account. I see that Account (https://github.com/pinax/pinax-project-account/) is available but there is no project for Base type.

Is this possible to upgrade like this?
