cc'ing some others not subscribed to this bug. I think we should plan
a call this morning about it, perhaps with Anthony and Ajo (as Jason
is booked.)

Some notes I found in looking at it this morning:

1) 49 out of the 87 ACL entries were for office reference folders.
This is clearly a trend. [wink]

2) 43 of the 87 entries are for individual people, rather than
groups. Can't we simplify things by putting some of these people into
some groups?

3) I see at least one fossil: bschreiber is an Enfold developer.

4) Shane is right, we have duplication of "Administrator" and
"Manager", for example on forums and offices/budapest (where
group.budapestadmins is both Admin and Manager.)

5) I think all entries that have "jhooper", "jlantz", and "agalietti"
could go away. They are likely to be KarlAdmin anyway. (Though I
suspect jhooper might revert back.)

6) This list doesn't help us on what ACLs to remove. For example, the
default rule is that staff gets to see anything in any office. But
what places is that not true?
