Prevent component creation owned by individual users?
Is there any way to prevent component creation by naive users who don't really want/need them? We find that new users end up creating a component because they don't flow with a stream when creating a repository workspace. So our server is ending up with a bunch of junk components that can never be deleted (or even archived since that isn't an option).

Check the permissions for the project/team. The options are under Source Control -> Save Component. |

Correct me if I am wrong - I believe repository workspace/component creation is independent of projects. The permissions you are pointing to don't control creation of the component, but adding or removing to the project and changing it's properties when it is owned by the project. I am trying to prevent component creation where the owner is an individual rather than a project/team. |

I'm not aware of a way to do this. I've submitted work item 95350
requesting this capability.
