I thought I had sent this email, but I had some mailer troubles, so I
think I didn't go through... :(

---------------------------------------------
Hello, and thanks for the answer!
I was looking through the code this afternoon a little. I was thinking
that maybe I could implement this myself into repoze.what, however, I do
have some questions you might be able to answer. Is it necessary that
all items in a section be of the same type: can a group have items which
are users and others which are groups?
-> yes: no problem, but how do you distinguish the item types? and would
you have a favorite way of modelling this in sqlalchemy? what would a
good generic way be to look for nested groups?
-> no: does this mean I would have to revamp the base class for sources?
or would you rather an approach favoring a secondary groups source,
containing the groups nesting?
Again, thanks for your insight and quick answer !
Yannick
