Talk:ESciDoc Access Rights

Meeting 19th march 2009: Consequences on eSciDoc Access rights on Enduser-features / "institutional visibility"

View item

• type of access/visibility should be visible to all users
• Improvement sorting: sort by items with attached fulltexts. within fulltexts, sort by visibilities (future development)

Admin solution (user roles, context)

• extend use case create user: assign him either role audience or role collaboratr for specific context
• extend use case/new use case: create user group (all org unit users, specific account users)

QA - modify item

• Visibility internal: can be accessed by QA role, but not viewed/opened by QA role. Does this make sense? Might be improvement for later.
• Do we need QA workspace for Collaborator, as he can access and modify?=> Proposal simple solution: No need for own workspace. The items, where I have access to as collaborator, should be listed under "my items". In addition, we need filter method to sort by "my own items" (i.e. i am depositor/owner) and "items for which i am collaborator". If filtering is not possible, we have to add specific icons(or similar) for the two types of items (i.e. my items or collaborator items)
• How to mark item as being accessible for collaborators or remove this possibility?: On view item page, we include new tab "collaboration". On this tab, QA role and Owner can see the item log (or parts of it, where collaborators have accessed and modified) and can add or remove the possibility for collaborators to access/modify this explicit item.In this context, he needs to have an info-button (link to context-sensitive help collaboration) to explain what does role collaborator mean.
