I've been reading through the documentation on creating .site files, as I'd 
like to create some on my own. However, I'm a bit confused by the differences 
between ContentsStart/ContentsEnd and StoryStart/StoryEnd :-/.
(I've read through http://sitescooper.org/doc/writing_site.html, for instance)

Is the basic idea that, on a two-level site, the ContentsStart/ContentsEnd 
describes the start- and end-points for the level-1 page, while 
StoryStart/StoryEnd describes the start- and end-points for the level-2 page?

For instance, consider The Register. So, ContentsStart/ContentsEnd would 
define the "content area" for the main page (http://www.theregister.co.uk/), 
while StoryStart/StoryEnd would describe the "content area" on linked-to 
articles? (Such as: http://www.theregister.co.uk/content/3/25049.html)

And, how do IssueLinksStart/IssueLinksEnd fit into all of this?  I gather that 
IssueLinksStart/IssueLinksEnd is used with 3-level sites, but how is that 
arranged?

Level-1: IssueLinksStart/IssueLinksEnd
Level-2: ContentsStart/ContentsEnd
Level-3: StoryStart/StoryEnd
(In this version, IssueLinksStart/IssueLinksEnd now defines the base-level, 
and the other categories move down a notch)

Or, is it this instead?

Level-1: ContentsStart/ContentsEnd
Level-2: StoryStart/StoryEnd
Level-3: IssueLinksStart/IssueLinksEnd
(In this version, ContentsStart/ContentsEnd and StoryStart/StoryEnd are their 
normal levels (1 and 2, respectively) and IssueLinksStart/IssueLinksEnd takes 
on the third level)

Lastly, looking through some of the included .site files, I see that some only 
have ContentsStart/ContentsEnd defined, or only StoryStart/StoryEnd defined. 
Is that just for single-level sites?
