Access Blocker

Melissa flagged that she needs manager-level access to the Aviary and PaperTube project folders in order to add team members. At the time of the stand-up, Mark was still listed as content manager on both folders. Mark confirmed he would update permissions.

Melissa: "You might need to — I don't know if you remember, I sent a note about Aviary and PaperTube that give me a manager so I can add them."
Mark: "No, I'm still content manager on both of them. Okay, I'm going to get it again."
