Bibledit is an application for translating the Bible.
People can sign up for an account and log in.
Each user has a certain role within the application.
The first role is Member. A member is somebody who has signed up to the site, and has confirmed this signup through his email.
The second role is Consultant. Consultants are people who can be consulted because of their knowledge of the original language such as Hebrew or Greek, or because of their knowledge of their target language in case they are language scholars, or for any other knowledge they have.
The next role is Translator. These are the ones that have all the rights of the Consultant, but in addition can change the Bible text.
Then there’s the Manager. The manager has all the privileges of the previous levels, but in addition can add books to the Bible, delete books, add chapters, copy Bibles, and so on. The manager can assign privileges to the translators, consultants, and so on.
Finally, there is the Administrator. The administrator has all rights to do anything, and will do the technical setup and maintenance of the site.
Everybody who has an account can enable the personal notifications. Those who have switched the relevant notifications on can receive email from Bibledit. They receive email when new consultation notes get created, or when consultation notes get changed, or when consultation notes get assigned to them. They can also get automatic daily email detailing the changes that have been made in the Bible since the previous email.
Everybody who has an account can create consultation notes by email, and respond to these by email.
