+Package acl provides primitives to perform handling basic ACL management in NeoFS.
+
+BasicACL type provides functionality for managing container basic access-control list.
+For example, setting public basic ACL that could not be extended with any eACL rules:
+
+	import "github.com/nspcc-dev/neofs-sdk-go/container"
+	...
+		c := container.New()
+		c.SetBasicACL(acl.PublicBasicRule)
+
+Using package types in an application is recommended to potentially work with
+different protocol versions with which these types are compatible.
+
+	Basic ACL bits meaning:
+
+	┌──┬──┬──┬──┬──┬──┬──┬──┬──┬──┬──┬──┬──┬──┬──┬──┐

+	U - Allows access to the owner of the container.
+	S - Allows access to Inner Ring and container nodes in the current version of network map.
+	O - Clients that do not match any of the categories above.
+	B - Allows using Bear Token ACL rules to replace eACL rules.
+	F - Flag denying Extended ACL. If set Extended ACL is ignored.
+	X - Flag denying different owners of the request and the object.
+
+	Remaining bits are reserved and are not used.
