The post seems to have disappeared :(

OTOH, there is a section about security in another post:

Seam/Security

The most-requested feature in the Seam forums is security. Unfortunately, the security-related specifications did not go through the same process of self-examination and improvement in Java EE 5 that some other specifications (EJB) did, and so there is now a yawning hole, exactly where the platform should strongest. (Today the most inadequate specifications in Java are the portlet spec, the atrocious servlet spec, and any JSR relating to security.) Seam 1.1.5 will introduce Seam/Security, an extension to Seam that provides:

    * a usable authentication layer
    * an ACL based permissioning model
    * an optional (customizable) user/role model
* a totally cool (at least we think so) authorization mechanism based upon EL and Drools

The permissioning model lets you do "row level" security by writing rules that refer to the actual object instance that we are checking permissions for.

A subsequent release will also provide a console for administration of permissions, users/roles and rules. OK, I'm sure that sounds pretty vague now, but stay tuned.

-> We should check that this plays well with our own security subsystem.

Gavin King (Hibernate's father for non-belivers ;-) just posted a
blog about the now famous "scripting languages vs. Java" topic.

I actually really agree with his message and opinion in this blog.
And I really like his introduction...

"What I like best about the Nuxeo project is that it demonstrates
how, at a time when many people are hyping the possibility of a
general movement off of the Java platform and onto pure scripting
environments, technologies like EJB 3.0 and Seam are making it
possible for some people to move in exactly the opposite direction."

Would you mind double checking that URL? From the "not working for me"
department...
