 h2. System roles 

 There are 2 system roles in Redmine: 'Non member' and 'Anonymous'. They are internally used by Redmine and thus can not be deleted. 

 * *Non member*: this role lets you define the permissions that a registered user has on projects which he is not a member of. 
 * *Anonymous*: this role lets you define the permissions that anonymous users have on the projects. 

 Note that these permissions only apply to public projects since a user who is not a member of a private project can not even see it.
