| Apr 8, 2013 at 17:38 | comment | added | Adrien | In my shop, the Developers are part of the IT department on the org chart, but as @Andrew points out, the only systems they have control over are their own workstations and the development servers. They don't touch the production servers without submitting a ticket explaining exactly why (i.e. for which job) they need the access, and what access they need. Then they get the access to perform that job, then the access is again pulled. | |

| Apr 2, 2013 at 6:36 | comment | added | Andrew | The test is "do they have control of the systems they are working with" - if they don't, then in that context they are an end-user. | |
| Apr 1, 2013 at 11:23 | comment | added | user11604 | That's a good point @Iain, it isn't always clear cut, and questions need to be considered on a case by case basis, rather than having a blanket rule applied. | |
