 In this directory you can find templates which are used by

+``zc.buildout`` to create the configuration files in the parts/etc/ subdir
 of your project.
+
+If you modify files in this directory, you have to run::
+
+  $ bin/buildout
+
+afterwards to rebuild the configuration files in parts/etc/.
+
+In the templates you can use placesholders recognized by zc.buildout
+to name local paths, etc. A zc.buildout placeholder looks like this::
+
+  ${buildout:directory}
+
+which gives you the path of the project directory and will be
+substituted with the real path when you run buildout the next
+time. The set of available placeholders depends on your
+buildout.cfg.
+
+You can also modify files in parts/etc directly, but those changes
+will be overwritten after running bin/buildout the next time.
+
+To run your project you can do::
+
+  $ bin/paster serve parts/etc/deploy.ini
