Hi folks,

quick question: is there a way to dynamically create (and delete) roles (not
groups)? I have members which can throughout the course of an academic year
be assigned to a committee. Some specific committees have extra rights to do
things through FarCry. With FarCry, one needs a role assigned to a specific
committee. This role would hold one group (a specific committee). I know how
to dynamically assign membership for this group, so that's not the problem.
The problem is dynamically associating THIS YEARS group with THIS YEARS
role, having as minimal changes (read, none as far as possible) to the
security structure.

This might be easy enough if I knew with 110% probability that committees
would be static. however, the number and names of committees might change
from year to year, and so I would prefer to have the roles be dynamic.
Furthermore, I cannot count on using say a cron job to execute a piece of
code once a year.

Any thoughts on implementation, or is this rather outside the box?

Maybe a couple simpler questions:
1) is there any other method by which FarCry reads roles except from adding
them through FarCry (e.g., adding an external User Directory, you can
specify "Groups" dynamically)
2) Is there a problem with deleting Roles, as opposed to deleting Users or
Permissions (neither of which I plan on doing)
