+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Ie, who is in charge of the following :
+</I>&gt;<i> - setup of web application
+</I>&gt;<i> &#160;- apache side
+</I>&gt;<i> &#160;- filesystem side

+</I>
+Sysadm. Per request of webteam.
+
+&gt;<i> - setup of infrastructure ( ie apache module)
+</I>
+Sysadm. Per request of webteam.
+
+&gt;<i> - who is in charge of securing
+</I>&gt;<i> &#160;- the servers
+</I>&gt;<i> &#160;- each applications
+</I>
+Both. Server security is going to be affected by application security
+and this is the webteam role to control that part. And to assume/fix
+potential issues.
+
+&gt;<i> - who is in charge of backuping
+</I>&gt;<i> &#160;- the server
+</I>
+sysadm.
+
+&gt;<i> &#160;- the applications
+</I>
+Webteam. Destroying and restoring a webapp must be a process taken
+into account at their level. Doesn't prevent sysadmins to be able to
+run it as well.
+
+It's likely going to be a back-and-forth process but ideally, the
+webteam would ask, for a given web app, for:
+ - a database type and access (with expected usage size),
+ - a vhost (provided it's not under an existing vhost),
+ - a web repository where to put and update files (so they must have a
+write access on this),
+ - a specific Apache config,
+ - a read access to related Apache logs
+ - a list of needed modules (PHP, Ruby, Perl, others)
+
+And should be able to work with this.
+
+However we can think to future provision to some webteam people
+(webmasters for instance) extended rights (Apache config write access,
+reloading Apache, extended rights on database). Depends on situation
+and roles.
+
+&gt;<i> Is everything taken care of the sysadm team, in which case no permission
+</I>&gt;<i> should be given to webteam, or some part of this are ( beware, because
+</I>&gt;<i> some part are dependent, ie people who setup a application take care of
+</I>&gt;<i> the security and of bugfixing it ), and so will the sysadm team act like
+</I>&gt;<i> a shared server provider toward various member of the community ?
+</I>
+More like a shared-server provider. However situation may differ from
+web app to web app. Don't know for sure yet. But as a start, I would
+go per the process described above.
+
+&gt;<i> And if we choose the path of a shared server provider, shall the web
+</I>&gt;<i> team alone be able to have a web site, or should we open the possibility
+</I>&gt;<i> to others team to do so ? ( ie, if the designers want to setup a custom
+</I>&gt;<i> webapp, who shall take care of that ? )
+</I>
+They should see that with the webteam or be part of it. That's the
+place where all Web-related stuff (be it technical or not) should be
+gathered and discussed.
