This software supports the notion of check-out to person.  

The preferred solution is to allocate one subpath to each person and use
access control separately on each subpath.  In cases where this is
impossible, this software can support the following protection among
the developers in the subsystem.  All developers are divided into
groups

 1) Users in a specific group may only check-out certain units.
 
 2) Once a user checks out a unit, only that user may edit that unit.

 3) Once a user checks out a unit, only that user may check that unit back in.
 
Initially, all groups are given RW access to all units allowing them to
visit, demote, and promote all units.  Note that they cannot edit the
unit because it is controlled and they must check it out first.  When a
user checks a unit out, RW access is reduced to that user only, thus
allowing only that user to edit it.  The check_in command check the CMVC
database to see if the same user has check the unit out.  If this is not
true, the command fails.

The package Authorization_List defines which groups have access to which
units.  Wildcards are used to define groups of units.  This can be disabled
if not useful to your project.

The package Local_Cmvc is a "skin" that enforces this check-out / check-in
policy and passes through all other commands to the environment cmvc
interface.
