<para>
- GForge was developed by the Open Source community as an environment in which to host projects in a way that the code, documentation, binaries etc. were publicly accessible to all who wished to see them, and members of the public could use the software that was developed, and contribute feedback, bugs, ideas and suggestions, and even help to develop code/modules/documentation/resources for the software.

Traditionally it was used for software projects, although there is really no reason why it cannot be used to develop hardware or silicon projects also.

<title>Administering a new project</title>
<para>
- This section provides an oversight on how to set up the GForge utilities so that they can be used by your project once it has been approved. Typically the cvs space will have been allocated by the morning after the confirmation email is sent to the project requester. In order to get the project into a useable state, the project administrator will need to perform some steps.

<title>CVS repository</title>
<para>
- If the project does not already have a CVS repository in place (eg if an existing project is being added to GForge mid-life, rather than a brand new project being started) the CVS repository will need to be set up. There are plenty of resources on CVS around so this document will not attempt to describe how to use CVS, but will provide just enough information to get started.

- But as was said earlier, this is not the place to provide a complete introduction to CVS. Go out and find some of the abundant documentation that is available for it on the web and elsewhere. Most importantly, if you run into a problem with CVS, it is NOT the GForge administrator's fault so don't go running to them every time. Try to figure it out yourself or go looking for help on CVS related news groups.
