---------------

      The *Roles* select list indicates which roles the user should
      have. In general users who are performing management tasks
      should be given the *Manager* role. In the case of your coworker,
      select the Manager role. The *Owner* role is not appropriate in
      most cases because a user is normally an owner of a specific
      object, not an owner in general. We'll look at ownership more
      later in the chapter.  We'll also see later how you can define
      your own roles such as *Editor* and *Reviewer*.

         Isn't "Editor" -role defined by default?

         No.  This is a role that is defined only you've added it or installed the CMF.
