Re: Tracking resolution of DISCUSSes

Hi Jeff,

on 2007-01-12 06:38 Jeffrey Hutzelman said the following:

There is work in progress (requirements-gathering appears to be nearly 
complete) to extend the tracker to provide WG chairs with tools to track 
documents while they are still in the hands of the working group.  I expect 
this will require extending the access control model, so perhaps when 
that's done we'll see enhanced access for shepherds.  Anyone from the tools 
team want to comment on this?

You're right above, both on the requirements gathering for chair access to
the tracker, and on the refinement of the access control model this will
require.  

Once this is in place, it should be fairly straightforward to provide enhanced
access for shepherds too; but explicit work on this has not been started, and
before starting it I'd say we need to decide that this is work that should be
done.  (It is possible that the simplest resolution in cases where the shepherd
is not a chair is to give the shepherd the same access rights as a chair.)
