Setup Question - "Editors" vs "Users"?

[James A]

We bought several licenses for Editors and Users. The Project Server manual
talks about 5 different user roles, i.e. Administrator, Project Mgr, Resource
Mgr, Team Member, and Viewer. I'm trying to figure out what editors and users
actually is so I can know who to assign these licenses to in our company. The
two license roles don't match any of the 5 manual roles. Help!

James A,
You will probably get a better response by posting to our sister
newsgroup, microsoft.public.project.server. This newsgroup is dedicated
to the stand alone version of Project.

Since you are talking about Project Server I would guess that Editor refers
to someone who will edit projects using Project Professional.
Users would be the ones who access the system using Project Web Access
(PWA). They require a client access license (CAL).
Project managers would most likely be handing the editing.
