Projects are development projects that are initiated within your organisation regarding a software product, a system or any other type of product.
A project covers the entire life cycle of development, including versioning (releases).
It is advised not to create different projects for different releases in order to keep a roadmap through time on how development evolves.
Using the versioning/releases within a project also gives you the abillity to promote unsolved issues to the next release,
next patch version and so on.
