[Joaquim Homrighausen]

  * Quoting Joaquim Homrighausen <joho at webbplatsen.se>:

Is there no easy answer to this question, or is the answer as "obvious" as the
question .. e.g. RTFM, see the FAQ.. ?

> Scenario:
>
> The application Bottleneck needs to store some "types" and some "attributes".
> The types are bottle types and the attributes are the various attributes each
> of these bottles can have.
>
> This data is "application data" and needs to have permissions so that only
> authorized people can edit bottle types and attributes.
>
> I need the "application data" to be shared, so that all users maintaining the
> bottle inventory can use the types and related attributes when they 
> add, edit,
> and remove bottles from the inventory; which may or may not be shared, etc.
