Designate multiple "owners" or "admins" of a shared folder

This idea is going to need a bit more support.

We've updated the status to encourage more users to back you up!

we've been asking for the same! can't rely on just a single owner.

We have a non-profit that uses Dropbox as a central file system for all of our volunteers to access.  We have a rolling team of board of directors that needs to grant/revoke access to volunteers.  Ideally being able to have those board of director members be multiple owners of the folders would help us manage this process.  As it is now, only one board of director member can admin permissions which puts too much burden on that one volunteer board member.  This change would be a huge help for us.

Need it for a group of professors who come and go.

I also work for a nonprofit and right now the Dropbox folders for our board and committees are managed by our board secretary, a volunteer. It would be nice for our paid staff to also be able to manage our Dropbox folders to lighten the load on our volunteer board member if not as an owner, but maybe some permission level between editor and owner. Manager?

Surprised this idea hasn't gone anywhere over the last year. We are a charitable organisation and need to keep control of our documentation. For various reasons, a Dropbox 'Owner' could no longer be in a position to operate the folders as required. This could be due to their demise, stepping down from position, or mismanagement.

While someone else with Editing privileges could create a new folder and copy files over, this still leaves the previous folder alive, which others can still access. There needs to be at least 2 people with the 'key' to the folder that still allows control should one owner fall by the wayside.

this is a must.

What happens if the owner of a Family Dropbox quits - or even dies?
If there is more than one owner, then this would not be a problem...
