+Each package or group has a list of users and their ''roles''. These are set from the 'authorization' tab of a package/group (assuming you are an 'admin' for the particular package/group).
 
 Example 1: Package 'paper-industry-stats':
-          * David Brent is 'admin'
-          * Gareth Keenan is 'editor'
-          * Logged-in is 'editor' (This is a special user, meaning 'anyone who is logged in')
-          * Visitor is 'editor' (Another special user, meaning 'anyone')
+          * David Brent is an 'admin'
+          * Gareth Keenan is an 'editor'
+          * Logged-in is an 'reader' (This is a special user, meaning 'anyone who is logged in')
+          * Visitor is an 'reader' (Another special user, meaning 'anyone')
+i.e. Gareth and David can edit this package, but only Gareth can assign roles (priviledges) to new team members. Anyone can see (read) the package.

-          * Visitor and Logged-in are both an 'editor' (these are special users
+          * Visitor and Logged-in are both an 'editor' and 'reader'
