ESA registry shouldn't allow accepted docs to be modified #745

Author Name: Jim Regetz (Jim Regetz) Original Redmine Issue: 4892, https://projects.ecoinformatics.org/ecoinfo/issues/4892 Original Date: 2010-03-18 Original Assignee: Shaun Walbridge

As submitter of an ESA document, I was able to modify the doc after it was accepted by the moderator, which I believe shouldn't happen. There is no GUI element to do it, so it's not as though this is likely to happen, but as either the submitter or the moderator, I can edit an accepted doc by entering a URL like the following:

http://data.esa.org/esa/cgi-bin/register-dataset.cgi?stage=modify&cfg=esa&docid=esa.70

To reiterate, this doc (esa.70) was already accepted when I did this, but I was nevertheless able to edit it and submit a modification. This triggered a 'doc has been revised' email to the ESA moderator list, and threw the doc back into the moderation queue.
