I think AuthUser.php is now included in the core. I had thought AuthTable showed the same information as action=attrib, but it doesn't look like it. Seems to this non-programmer a straight-forward job to turn the attrib's into a table. Back to AuthUser. On the attrib pages, it shows either **** for an classic-style password, or id:George or @GroupOne , which is much more informative. It will also allow you to add / remove individuals without affecting others, and track authors more accurately. Downside is that each person must be given a name and password, and you'll have to update SiteAdmin/AuthUser for each person. And then you'll have to stick people into user groups. (Each person can be in an unlimited number of user groups.) But you'd have to do much of this with any of the other methods.
