[ydl-gen] RE: yellowdog-general Digest, Vol 21, Issue 7

So Jake, you do understand what that implies, yes?

The users are either not accessing the areas where you expect them to

access to.
This question of where they are allowed needs to be tidied up.  Ok?

Good Luck and watch those colons ... Derick. :)
