Justin Koke commented on MRM-832:
---------------------------------

I would also really like to add my voice to this issue.

Security is hard to get right, and it usually scares me when I find 'yet 
another security framework'.

I didn't know about Redback until I found it in Archiva and I am astonished 
that it was chosen as an option for this project.

I would highly recommend moving away from Redback and use Spring Security.
