Using Confluence for project templates?

[MP052]

First, I'm new to Confluence. Second, I know there is a Confluence project template. I want to make a set of core project document templates (requirements, HLDs, test cases etc) available in standard format for new projects. So when a project manager starts a new project they can create a new project space(?) based on a standard space template and be sure that they have the latest templates copied across to their new space. And once they start running the project I want them to be able to show/report the status of project documents.

any ideas/examples out there? 

Cheers

If you are using the same templates for all your projects just create GLOBAL templates and they will appear in all your new project spaces. No need to copy.
