2014-08-23 Thread Joe Cropper
Hi Folks, Would anyone be opposed to adding the 'action' checking to the v2/v3 authorizers? This would allow administrators more fine-grained control over who can read vs. create/update/delete server groups. Thoughts? If folks are supportive, I'd be happy to add this... but not sure if we'd tr
