I forgot to ask something, creating a role is the same as creating a user,
that is creating a collecition under /slide/roles/ and setting up the
right properties?
How do you give permissions to certains collections to a role, for example
/slide/
|--files/new/
|--roles/
|--newRole/ <---the users associted to this role can
just read/write "/slide/new/"
Again has anyone done this with the slide client library, or even
better has some example code to use as base.
Thanks in advanced
