Hi Katie,
Admittedly, the changes I'd be likely to make will probably be annotations, which may eventually get modeled differently, but we haven't gotten near to implementing annotations yet, so as a first cut I'd like to edit items I get from read-only sources.
i disagree that you should be able to change the actual existing attributes of an item you shared read-only. that completely defeats the purpose of read-only permissions. i'm all for allowing you to make notes about an item that are only visible to you, or maybe even override an item's attributes again for you only, but as you point out, that's a different thing altogether. as a step along the path to a different eventuality, i think your suggestion is even more wrong, because not only does it contradict the read-only nature of the access specified by the sharer, but it sets an expectation that would be once again contradicted when the final solution iss put in place. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Open Source Applications Foundation "Design" mailing list http://lists.osafoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/design
