{subsection: Proposal: shared folder}
We create a shared folder into which new design documents are placed. Proposed permissions are:
*: HTCondor dev team: Can Edit - This is full access; people can create documents, delete them, and modify the permissions (although the latter can be removed?). Should only be given to people we trust with similar access to the Wiki and AFS.
-*: Public: Can View - Maybe grant Can Comment, as the harm in abuse is pretty minimal.
-*: External collaborators - Can Comment (unnecessary if we granted the public this level)
+*: Public: Can View
+*: Close collaborators: Can Edit
The SWAMP team are using this solution.

On the down side, permission to create or edit documents is very chunky.
+It is not possible to set "Can Comment" on a folder, you need to set it on a file-by-file basis. So if comments are desired from people without edit access, it will be need to be added for each file.

{section: Proposal: individual file management}
Individuals just create their own design documents, perhaps with a title prefix of "Design Document:" so they are easy to find. They are marked as "Public: Can Comment" (risk of abuse is low). If other people need edit access, it's granted on an as-needed basis. (We can also only grant comment access on an as-needed basis in a pinch.) The very rare design document with security ramifications won't be public; people are added as needed.
