Description Nick Coghlan 2013-12-09 03:56:15 UTC 
Currently, all users of a given Beaker installation can update any task uploaded to the task library. This includes the core tasks that Beaker relies on for correct operation of various features:

    /distribution/install
    /distribution/reservesys
    /distribution/inventory
    /distribution/updateDistro
    /distribution/virt/install
    /distribution/virt/start

To prevent erroneous updates to these tasks (and other tasks), it should be possible to limit updates to a given task to a specific set of users or groups (similar to a cut down version of system access policies).
Comment 2 Nick Coghlan 2014-02-07 05:44:30 UTC 
It should be possible to build something similar to the system ACL model, with just two levels of access:

- upload new versions
- edit the policy
