I want to develop an Archetype content type with, say, three fields called Private, Semi-Private and Public. The owner of the content object should have view and modify permissions for all three fields. Anonymous users should have only view access for the Public field. Furthermore, I want to have a role, say "Restricted User", which grants view and modify permissions for the Semi-Private and the Public field.
My question is how to do achieve this in a canonical way. Two possible solutions have come to my mind: 1) Create three AT content types. The first one includes the Private field and two references to content objects of the other two content types. These other two content types are simply wrappers around the Public and the Semi-Private field. Then I can use the standard permissions (zope2.View, cmf.ModifyPortalContent) on the three content objects in order to achieve what I want. 2) Create one AT content type that implements three Zope 3-schemata, say IPublicSchema, IPrivateSchema and ISemiPrivateSchema. Create four new permissions, say View Private Content, View SemiPrivate Content, Modify Private Content and Modify SemiPrivate Content. Then use configure.zcml and the <require /> tag to link these four new permissions to the two fields Private and SemiPrivate. Finally grant the Owner and the Restricted User (some of) the new permissions. What is the best way to solve the problem? (I am developing with Plone 3.1.) Or is there a better way?
