Some of us - who aren’t willing/able to commit to Project.ede files for project maintenance - aren’t going to use the generic project type, and should be steered towards the use of ‘non-owning’ project types. The current EDE documentation - specifically the quickstart section - pretty much assumes that you’re going to use the generic project type.

Hi Alastair,

I took a stab at completely revamping the EDE documentation organization.

Partly, I took larger sections and put them into their own files.   I 
then used the introduction to introduce two quickstart sections, one for 
wrapping a project, and one for the managed project type that creates a 
Project.ede file.

I'd be very interested in peoples thoughts on this organization, and if 
you think it will help.

Thanks
Eric
