      I just deleted someone else's transaction accidentally.  It was number 1345 
      in CA.  Do you have any plans to implement an ownership system?

   You're confused.  The transaction is still there.  Discuss uses
   kerberos -- you can't delete a message unless kerberos says you're the
   person who wrote it.  Kerberos seldom lies.

No Jon, you're confused.  That's what "o" access implies.  "d" access
(which is granted to "*" in the CA meeting) implies that you can
delete *any* transaction.  Go ahead, try it, even you can delete
transaction 1345.  Of course you can also "retrieve" it as well.
