Comment:
Edited package maintaining section.
  
  = Management of your own project =
  
+ Each BOINC project has its own configuration variables, it is needed as long the project lives for updation. It is a good idea to store variables of each project in file like ~/.${fileprojectname}.conf
+ 
+ For our test project, the configuration file is ~/.boinctest.conf and this will look like,
+ {{{
+ # password for write access to your project database
+ pw=MYSQLPASSWORDFORBOINCUSER
+ 
+ # name of the MySQL database
+ dbprojectname=boinctest
+ 
+ # address of host (via DNS or IP number) at which project server shall be reached
+ hosturl=http://a.b.c.d
+ 
+ # name of folder in which data shall be stored, also becomes part of project URL
+ fileprojectname=$dbprojectname
+ 
+ # more human-compatible way to read the project name
+ niceprojectname="BoincTestProject at Home"
+ 
+ # location at which sources shall be kept
+ installroot=/var/tmp/boinc
+ }}}
+ 
+ So while maintaining the project all we have to do is 
+ {{{
+ source .${fileprojectname}.conf
+ }}}
+ and execute the commands using the standard variables.
+ 
+ 
+ 
+ 
  This section still needs to be written. Frankly, we don't know, yet. To clarify
   * updates of the project pages
    * the web pages are most likely straight forward to bring to a new version
