This section describes the Projects panel. Projects are a high-level way to group reviews, that represent different artifacts, but still relate to some common entity: product, application, product area, change-set. For example, one project could host product requirements documents, design documents, source code files, test cases and marketing materials.

The Projects panel lists all the projects where current user can participate. It also allows to modify existing projects and create new projects.

To access projects list, click Projects in main menubar:

You can select which projects are shown, by selecting the check-boxes for Active and/or Closed. Selecting Active displays all project that are currently active and are accessible to current user. Selecting Closed will list retired projects.
