/Bremgard/Functions/guard  is some kind of /Asgard/Functions/basic for
Bremgard .

It was empty for an hour this morning. After I switched authentication
ON for the host (!) I bridged this critical pitfall of Bremgard. I
should have know better since it belongs to the requirements of my site
(and maybe all others). Without authentication $midgard->user is missing
for most purposes in Bremgard that is a consequent followup for Asgard.
However I would have never betted that out of all victims snippet
inclusion is the first one.

Maybe it's still a bug in midgard ?

There is a stupid proverb in german that says "only  the fearfull have
to back up on every  step they take" (Wer bremst - using brakes - hat
Angst) ;-)
Beeing serious again I never used full exports but instead I have a list
of 6 xml-files in a rwo that seperate asgard from bremgard fixes and
also tracks some major bremgard releases.  The reason for the dispense
in this case should be clear because the import should be possible for
any other site from scratch. On the other hand I also would have or even
still should better restart from scratch.

However a full restore into SG0 requires different privileges. But many
problems could already have been avoided if I packed the sitegroup with
all its content. However the seperation was intended at this moment
because I don't know if sitegroups identity (not id) also is
autoincremented or created dynamicly enough (?)

Due to the sitegroup link problem maybe the import between sitegroups of
two midgards failed just because of this my intention :-( (I'm afraid
Alexander will tell me just this)

Since you may havn't prepared a sitegroup it's part of your SG0 ?  ( I
never tested this variant) If you add an authenticated host to the root
"Guild"  with Bremgard style the call should show fragments. To see more
fragments you will have to adjust 5 parameters in the first 10 lines of
code-global. Until now they have to be inserted manually by reading the
topic-ids from the top of the topic list.  I prepared a longer first
instruction that you may receive if you are interested. However you will
see the same now under http://insight.kn-bremen.de:8080/Guild

Unfortunately the first steps are not self explaining, still. However
you may have take a look by entering with the guest user or even with
the account from your repligard.conf. Since I forgot to remove it by
accidence I removed it this morning ;-(  If the import works the result
is a site that combines  99% of asgard with the combined trees of pages
and topics. Also, person+user adding by asgard callbacks with new
sub-homepages by templated almost works :-) Mostly missing from my point
of view is the pagelink admin in asgard that combines asgards pages with
bremgards styles.

I'm also rather interested because I have some clear associations now.
E.g. since all groups+persons have been stranded in SG0 there is almost
less then little hope that importing into a sitegroup guarantees
sitegroups integrity. If my sitegroup borders would have been secure by
the login given in repligard.conf I would not have to remove now all
groups and persons from SG0. And this could only happen after I removed
all sitegroup references from the xml by myself.  Maybe I will start all
over again with two xml files: First one loads the new sitegroup with
root and admin person under SG0 in order to accept the body of the
sitegroup.  Ain't it so, Alexander ?
