web tree group and rights fixes



Please, is there any chance to fix all file/directories rights fixed so
all gnomeweb members could modify without problems the web tree?

There are lots of directories with 755 or files with 644, I think they
should be fixed to be 775 and 664 so all gnomeweb members could change
files as needed. I know that more than 80% of the website is just an
installation from a cvs module but I had problems in the past about
access rights to some files and I think it's easy if we fix it now (and
people tries to fix the permissions with new addtions).

Every time I modify the web tree I execute:

find -xtype d -exec chmod 2775 {} \;
find -xtype f -exec chmod 664 {} \;
chgrp -R gnomeweb .

That way any gnomeweb member has the same rights to modify those files
in the future.

We could avoid the need to execute those commands if root or gnomeweb
users change them globally and we use our default mask as 002, the
system will do the work automatically. 

Cheers.
