    If you can edit a liaison then you can change its deadline date.

    Same here, if you can edit the liaison then you can add the 
reference to other liaison.

    I suppose, as I said in my previous mail, that the problem is who 
can 'take care' (mark as done) a liaison. Right now this action can be 
done by anyone whose email is listed in the liaison. But probably I 
should add the people that can edit the liaison to the ones that can 
'take care' of it.

    Best,
