[zanata-users] Disable some feature for end users

[Alessandro Portosa]

Thanks for you help! At the moment I can't update my Zanata to the newer 
version. but I will asap for sure! The API usage is fine at the moment, 
not urgent.  Anyhow, I'm still looking for a trick to disable the 
project creation with my version (3.5.1) of Zanata. It can also be 
something that I can change by hand as administrator with a 
"quick-and-dirty" way... It is just temporary fix until I get time to 
update my Zanata instance.
