+== Staging area vs. final data ==
+
+`/project/projectdirs/cosmo/data/staging/` is intended for temporary staging work and preparation of data releases,
+and is writable by any member of the cosmo group.
+
+After these data are ready, they can be moved into a final `cosmo/data/{survey}/{release}/` directory.
+That area is restricted to the cosmo project user to ensure some level of consistency for the
+data written there.  This process should be viewed like SDSS data releases: the data are processed and
+organized elsewhere, and then when finalized (and only then) they are moved into the final data release
+directories, controlled by the sdssadmin user.  Once written and released, these data are frozen -- never
+updated nor removed.
+
+Currently Ben, Dustin, and Stephen have access to the cosmo user account via:
+
+{{{
+ssh carvergrid.nersc.gov
+export GLOBUS_LOCATION=/usr/common/osg/gsissh/globus
+source /usr/common/osg/gsissh/globus/etc/globus-user-env.sh
+myproxy-logon -s nerscca.nersc.gov
+# Enter NERSC NIM password
+gsissh cosmo@localhost
+# Now you are the cosmo user
+}}}
