well, committing my latest on the plexus-security integration and
archiva trunk in a little bit and thought I would write a bit about
it.

it works! mostly...

I have deployed the latest snapshots for plexus security so all of
that should be fine, if there are problems ping me and I'll make sure
all the snapshots are up.

The user management pages need some work, but the basics are all in
place.  When you start it up I would recommend you go to the
login/register link in the upper left corner.  From here register for
an account and then login right after that (need a success message
there) and then click on the Settings link in the upper left corner
near your name.

This takes you to the user page where you can for a limited time only
promote yourself to System Administrator! :)

This will enable many of the links that I have wrapped up to show they are done.

The Edit User link on the users page is a good one to look at, as well
as the administration page (index.jsp)

couple of things that need to get wrapped up asap

logging out isn't working
test the adding of repositories and the autogeneration of the
Maintainer and Observer repository roles

For the time being you can look in the DefaultRoleManager component in
the webapp for the breakdown of operations, permissions and role
creation.  The operations in the initialize there are what would be
placed in the permission="" of the pss:ifAuthorized jsp tags.

It is using Rahul's user manager authenticator, a jdo user manager and
a jdo rbac store.
