meta - editor - editall etc

Hello

Been reading a lot in here over the past couple of days, and I'm wondering what these titles signify. I'm aware that it is the 'Editors' rank within ODP, but is there a list anywhere of the different grades ? Looked in the FAQ for the board but nothing there..

I assume (top to bottom) :

meta
editall (but how is this different to editall/catmv)
editor

Is there any more ? Whats the highest rank one can attain ?

Thanks.

editor:
Editors are able to edit sites and create/delete sub-categories in the categories they are listed as editors of.

editall:
Able to edit anywhere in the directory, except the Kids_and_Teens area.

keditall:
Able to edit anywhere in the Kids_and_Teens area.

catmv:
Able to move categories from one place to another.

catmod:
Able to accept new editors into a specific branch of the directory. kcatmod is a catmod for the Kids_and_Teens area. It is not possible to become catmod or kcatmod without first being listed as editor of the top level category in a specific branch.

meta:
Able to accept new editors into any branch of the directory. It is not possible to become a meta without first getting editall, keditall, catmod, or kcatmod status

staff:
People that actually earn money for doing what the rest of us do for free.


Editall and catmod are mutually exclusive at the moment. I believe it is technically possible for an editor to become catmv without becoming editall, but I'm not aware of it ever happening.

There is a section in the FAQ that has space for listing the types of forum member but this section has not been filled in.

Could someone copy and paste the above information into the FAQ?

You can get a full list of editor types, with explanations, from http://dmoz.org/erz/editors/editor-types.html .

Some editors do go straight from 'editor' to 'editall/catmv', but usually they are just given editall first.
