Hi all,

Since we often need to manage credentials at a resource level, we're  
actually studying about a new security plugin: isicsACLPlugin.

With sfGuardPlugin, it's easy to manage permissions for a collection  
of resources. But what about restricting access to a sub-collection of  
resources or even to a particular one ? For instance, if you want to  
restrict the view to all the news, a credential news_view is well  
enough. But if you want to restrict the same operation to the news of  
category 2 or directly to the news 53 ? That's the main purpose of  
isicsACLPlugin.

Another goal is to add a new customization level for end-users. With  
Symfony basic security system, it's the developer that tells if an  
action is secured or not (security.yml config file).
With isicsACLPlugin, the end-user will be able to define directly if  
an operation on resource is:
- public
- restricted to any authenticated user
- or fine-grained secured

isicsACLplugin is an open source project (LGPL). We hope it will  
become a community project and that many apps will use it.

We've starded to write the specifications here :

.
If U're interested in contribute or just give your opinion, the door  
is open!

Thanks.
