Changing templates

A template is just used to initialize the process of the project area,
so it is not a mechanism for subsequently modifying the process of the
project area. One approach if you do want to be able to upgrade the
process of the project area is to "share" the process of another project
area, and then when you want to modify the process, select a different
project area to "share" from.

Note that if you make any process configuration changes in your process,
those changes override the corresponding section of your shared process
(and sections currently have a very coarse granularity), so if you are
going to use the "share" approach, you will probably not be able to
effectively make any local changes to your process.

Also note that work items are instantiated based on the schema defined
in the process configuration, so if you change your process, your
existing work items may have attribute types and values that are no
longer valid in the new process configuration (and you'd have to fix
those up by hand).

Cheers,
Geoff

After creating a project with a template, how do you change the
template for the project? For example, if i chose a waterfall
template and later decided to change it to scrum. Is this possible ?
