[opencms-dev] Still confusing to me: Createing a new project

[Apostoly Guillaume]

My opinion is : you must not considere projects in OpenCMS as a way to make
different projects, but as a way to allow people to act on different parts
from your website.
Example : have the administrator work on project offline with rights on all
parts, have some people work on project "documentation" with access to only
the /documentation branch from your directory, etc...
If i were you and i want to make really different projects, i'll make
another webapp by duplicating the opencms directory.

Hope this helps (and that it's true !).
