      • Couple of ideas with regard to it being public or non-public, as a general list

        • Revisit authorizations for tools? (Specifically CNC tools, cnc sublead?)
  • At area lead meeting most of this was discussed, some not, as people were not there. Prototype of authorization lookup working.
