Hi Dirkjan, Your probably right about the user migrations. Basically if your use document doesn't have any owner doc a normal user won't be abble to update it. On the other hand it should still be possible to update/delete them with an admin. Can ou create separate issues about this on jira ? (one for migration , and the other for the users db migration) ? It will help to track the problem. - benoît
