I tried to remove a large XML example from the PDE API Tools webspace and was greeted with a CVS error that permission was denied. I'm not sure what happened, but I used to be able to commit to the API tools webspace. The CVS path in question is: cvsroot/org.eclipse/www/pde/pde-api-tools/
I see what we did for Platform/JDT was to change group ownership of sections of the web site to different groups: johna@dev1:/cvsroot/org.eclipse/www> ls -l jdt total 71 drwxrwsr-x+ 4 droy eclipse.jdt.core 624 2008-09-12 01:34 apt drwxrwsr-x+ 2 oliviert eclipse.jdt 80 2006-01-12 10:22 Attic drwxrwsr-x+ 22 oliviert eclipse.jdt.core 1128 2011-01-27 13:31 core -r--rwxr--+ 1 oliviert eclipse.jdt 10198 2006-01-12 10:22 index.html,v -r--rwxr--+ 1 pmulet eclipse.jdt 6938 2008-06-12 07:09 index.php,v -r--rwxr--+ 1 oliviert eclipse.jdt 15102 2006-06-29 10:18 main.html,v -r--rwxr--+ 1 oliviert eclipse.jdt 14651 2006-01-12 11:27 overview.html,v -r--rwxr--+ 1 pmulet eclipse.jdt 8327 2008-06-12 07:07 overview.php,v -r--rwxr--+ 1 oliviert eclipse.jdt 2816 2009-01-28 09:19 _projectCommon.php,v drwxrwsr-x+ 2 pmulet eclipse.jdt 96 2008-09-05 04:14 project-info drwxrwsr-x+ 24 7009 eclipse.jdt.ui 1152 2011-03-21 13:45 ui drwxrwsr-x+ 2 pmulet eclipse.jdt 80 2008-06-13 07:40 unused
Ankur/Curtis, as PDE project leads, do you think a similar approach in PDE would make sense? For example we could chown the following doc directories under www/pde: incubator -> eclipse.pde.incubator pde-api-tools -> eclipse.pde.ui pde-build -> eclipse.pde.build pde-ui -> eclipse.pde.ui The generic top level project doc would continue to be owned by the "eclipse.pde" group.

That sounds like a reasonable approach. If it is easier, I would be ok with pde-ui and pde-build groups being given access to the entire website project. The majority of our content is now on wiki pages rather than the Eclipse website.
Either solution is fine with me. -M.

Matt, can you go ahead and add eclipse.pde.ui and eclipse.pde.build to the ACL for /cvsroot/org.eclipse/www/pde/
OK I've updated the Acls. Michael if you restart your CVS connection does everything work as expected? -M.

Great. -M.
