Hi
I have a similar requirement to divide user rights in respect of a repository.
I have an academic environment in which there is an Academic Manager that oversees education. The learning is managed by more than one academic supervisor and naturally we have a student that participates in this effort as well.
The learning is structured to have documents that form the basis of the progress and evaluation and these documents has to be version and life cycle managed.
The idea is that there will be a dedicated academic space in which documents could be created and collaboratively worked on, and regularly presented for evaluation, but that only one party, the Academic Manager, will have delete rights on this space.
As the academic repository content will be used for academic evaluation and progress the essence of the requirement is to have a digital space that allows all authorised participants to have controlled access, create and read rights, but that only a designated party could have delete rights.
Is this possible within the Mahara environment?
How would I be able to set up such functionality?
Thanks
