The system strictly separates logic from content.
Within exist-db - following the current convention - all the code (and layout templates) is by default placed into
/db/apps/{app-name}. However individual projects are placed in a separate folder, which can/should be outside of the /db/apps collection.
By default it is: /db/cr-projects but it can be chosen freely (set in build.properties).
Additionally, a separate collection is foreseen for the actual (project-)data. This collection is by default /db/cr-data, but can also be customized (property: data.dir).
/db/apps/cr-xq-mets
/db/cr-data
/db/cr-projects
