Dave,

I was thinking of a migration guide sort of document. For someone who had implemented 
advanced security throughout their site, there is going to be a fair amount of 
re-engieering required. Fortunately, MM is going to take care of this for us Spectra 
users with 1.5.2 but what about all the others who have tons of data tied up in 
siteminder tables??

While that certainly couldn't hurt, the fact is that there isn't nearly as
much to say about the new security architecture as there was about the old
one! Spend a good half-hour with the new tags and functions (CFLOGIN,
CFLOGINUSER, CFLOGOUT, GetAuthUser, IsUserInRole), and the CF Admin
interface for sandbox security, and that's all there is. The first thing,
the tags and functions, are called "user security" in the CF documentation.
Programmatically, it seems pretty easy to use (I've only written one little
login system with it, though, so I could be missing some things).
