SharePoint 2013 permission levels vs SharePoint 2010 permission levels

If you're wondering what's changed in SharePoint 2013 permissions, don't hold your breathe.  Not much.  Well, not much on the surface at least.  There's a whole new set of security event handlers tied into user and group management, but in terms of security permissions in a browser, there's little difference between SharePoint 2013 and 2010.

I wanted to provide a breakdown of all the SharePoint 2013 Permission Levels and compare them to 2010 to see if anything has changed.  Only one real change:  Override Check Out is now Override List Behaviors.

SP2010	Override Check Out	Discard or check in a document which is checked out to another user.
SP2013	Override List Behaviors	Discard or check in a document which is checked out to another user, and change or override settings which allow users to read/edit only their own items

SharePoint 2013 Permissions

SharePoint 2013 Beta is out and I thought I'd look through the permissions and provide a list of the full list of permissions.  I'll post another blog shortly on a comparison to see what the differences are:

List Permissions
	Manage Lists - Create and delete lists, add or remove columns in a list, and add or remove public views of a list.
	Override List Behaviors - Discard or check in a document which is checked out to another user, and change or override settings which allow users to read/edit only their own items
	Add Items - Add items to lists and add documents to document libraries.
	Edit Items - Edit items in lists, edit documents in document libraries, and customize Web Part Pages in document libraries.
	Delete Items - Delete items from a list and documents from a document library.
