You are correct in your assessment of Jetspeed security. Although the database is designed to support user-group-role relationships as you describe, the implementation assumes that all roles are always enrolled in single group (Jetspeed). I think this is a limitation which prevents such things as delegating admin privileges to selected resources for a non-admin user. > > In our project (www.eunetyard.net) we have modified this mechanism and we > were wondering if this would be a good idea to integrate it to Jetspeed > releases. In this case we can provide you the source code. I personally think it is a good idea to integrate your changes as long as the change is transparent (and I think that is possible to do). I can work with you on the integration. Just want to make sure that there are no objections from other developers. Thanks for your proposal.
