CMS - Plugin Framework
--------------------------------------------------

This module contains the definition of interfaces that server plugins are expected to implement.
Basic and abstract implementations are provided in different module default-lc-manager.

Basic providers (e.g. WSProvider, ISProvider) used both in test and by the service are implemented here for simplicity.

Morover, this module provides an `EventManager` to notify the events {`PROJECT_CREATED`, `PROJECT_UPDATED`, `PROJECT_DELETED` `LIFECYCLE_STEP_PERFORMED`} 
to the plugins that subscribe to them.
