Hi Suresh,

Yes it answers my question.

Also can we assume that descriptors (host, application etc ...) are
owned by a single user ? (In addition to workflows, projects and
experiments)

Let me also explain how we thought about this.

A gateway can have multiple projects. A project can have multiple
experiments. An experiment is equivalent to a workflow. So a user is
associated with a workflow. The associated user has read, write
capabilities to all workflows he/she designs.
If a workflow needs to be shared, then it goes to a new state called
"published". In published state other users can read the workflow but
cannot do any modifications to it.

I guess with your answer we need to change the structure we originally
discussed.

Thanks
Amila
