[support] content provider role?

[Dave Stevens]

Hi,

I'm trying to use Drupal as a newbie and want to create a user type  
called content provider. Basically I want folks to be sub-editors on  
the site, so they can add content and edit it, but without being  
administrators. Is there something I'm missing in thinking that this  
needs an add-on? Can I do this straight out of the box?

References welcome.

Dave
