My implementation of the same code:

PROJECT_PATHS=(~/Projects/Openminds ~/Projects/RubyRails ~/Projects/CRSolutions)

function project () {
cmd="cd"
file=$1

if [[ "open" == "$file" ]] then
    file=$2
    cmd=(${(s: :)EDITOR})
fi

for project in $PROJECT_PATHS; do
    if [[ -d $project/$file ]] then
        $cmd "$project/$file"
        unset project # Unset project var
        return
    fi
done

echo "No such project $1"
}  

alias p="project"
alias m="project open "

function _project () {
    compadd `/bin/ls -l $PROJECT_PATHS | awk '{ print $9 }'`
} 

compdef _project project

Awesome. Thx !

I've turned this into an oh-my-zsh plugin and requested a pull:
ohmyzsh/ohmyzsh#1583

I've renamed it to pj to avoid a name clash with the GO programming language.

@To1ne Please add a README to the folder of oh-my-zsh.
