Hi, I am far away from beeing a commiter, but would like to get some thoughts about the AnonymousUser permission checks written down (I'll keep it short to not hijack this thread): By the time I moved permission checks to the backends I didn't thought much about anonymous users (I guess that was bad, but by that time I never needed it). The current situation is as follows: If we pass the AnonymousUser into the backend we will berak any code that relied on the User object to be in the database [disclaimer: as far as I can tell, we always said that the programmer should check if the User is authenticated or not, but as we never passed AnonymousUser into the backends I doubt someone checks that. Though I guess most people used the backends to check against ldap etc, so this would be a non issue…]. If you are okay with that, I am +1 on whatever needs to be done to get this feature in.
Aside from that I would like to know what the status on admin-ui is, as Janis worked on that lately. That said I don't see any real reason why we would need to postpone the beta.
