-Appendix A: Zope Core Permissions
-
- This is a list of standard permissions included with Zope. It is a
- good idea to use these permissions when applicable with your Zope
- products, rather than creating new ones.
-
- % mcdonc - June 11, 2002 6:46 pm:
- The Copy or Move permission was added as of 2.6. If you revoke the Copy and Move permission from a role
- respective to an object, even if a user has "View management screen" permissions, he or she will not be able
- to copy or move the object.
-
- % Anonymous User - Dec. 20, 2002 1:15 pm:
- I don't mean to bitch, but the following list is absolutely unnecessary. Every permission seems to be defined
- by quoting the permission and adding 'object' or the like. To me, this list contains no information.
- Couldn't you put longer descriptions and examples for each right?
-
- % Anonymous User - Dec. 20, 2002 1:20 pm:
- I'd rather just remove the chapter if it becomes more than this. Right now I can't maintain it. If someone
- else wanted to do this and keep it up to date, I'd be fine with it. -- chrism

- Sorry, Anon, "the following list" is absolutely NECESSARY. Yes, the descriptions are a little skimpy, but the
- whole reason I found this page was that I needed to see the ENTIRE list of permissions without being filtered
- by type. (i.e. if I go to the Zope management interface, I see only the permissions that apply to the type of
- object that I've selected.)
- Perhaps the page could be automatically generated from the Python source? I'd like to see a table-oriented
- display: name of permission, object types it applies to, 1-sentence description, and "warnings / gotchas /
- special notes."

- This page needs expansion. I'm not a believer in "self-documentation", so administrators need to be able to
- know for sure what security settings they're putting on a page. Yes, we could check the source. . .or we
- could use a product that tells us what we're dealing with. I like the security model, the permission layering
- is great, but we need a bit more info.

- Pathetic .. breaks every known rule of good documentation I can think of.

- % Anonymous User - Mar. 23, 2005 9:04 am:
- This page absolutely needs expansion. I think having a list of which permission is used where, _and_
- information for developers and admins on what the goal of each permissions, and some use cases would be
- helpful.
- I found this page because I wanted to know what "access content information" needs, because I have a zope
- where there is no permission given to Anonymous, and wanted to give view permission to a wiki inside a wiki
- inside zope. I figured out that "access content information" should be given to the zope root to Anonymous to
- achieve this. From this page I figure it could be something like "access metadata" to some extent, but I
- still cannot decide whether my private data is safe if I do this.
- If there would be documentation on where this permission is used, It would be easier to figure out whether I
- have to fear. I guess pythondoc could be easily hacked to extract this info.
- If there would be some more words on goals of permissions, then developers could have more hints on which
- permission should be used for what. This could be further clarified with usage examples.
- The above two information would make easier for system administrators to set exactly the needed permissions
- without a lot of experimenting.
