Hi

The list of roles is on my to do list - just not at the top yet….
config\alfresco\model\permissionDefinitions.xml is the best place to look at the moment.

You can give remove rights to collaborator by including delete.


      <permissionGroup name="Collaborator" allowFullControl="false" expose="true">
         <includePermissionGroup permissionGroup="Editor" type="cm:cmobject" />
         <includePermissionGroup permissionGroup="Contributor" type="cm:cmobject" />
         <includePermissionGroup type="sys:base" permissionGroup="Delete"/>
      </permissionGroup>
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

At the moment there is no simple support for limiting creation to just documents.

Regards

Andy
