Hi David:
re: "role based security". Let me get back to you on that. It will take
me some time to give details on this.
Thanks for asking.

I really did just mean for this to be a brainstorming thread... so could we
add? Yeah, I guess we could add/change/etc anything in theory. Whether these
things happen or not is another question and issue altogether (or more
importantly how they happen, I do believe there's a chance for anything).
Anyway, when say "role based security" what does that mean to you? Could you
describe some scenarios you'd like to see supported and maybe what the configuration
might look like?

Hi David:
Could we add something to help manage role based security? Roles, user's
resources etc. all in one place? I don't mean within the Party component. Roles
have just as much to do with resources as they do with users.

Ruth

If you could change anything about the OFBiz framework (not related to a
specific tier), what would it be? This could be about how OFBiz is deployed,
how the tools fit together, how application components are written and
organized, and so on.
All comments are welcome. If there is another tool you'd like to see used, please describe what you
like about it (like "I've found the aspect oriented inversion of control approach nice because
I can plugin all sorts of tools and the full life cycle of the tools are managed for me")
instead of just mentioning the tool (like "let's use Spring!").
Why am I asking? This topic comes up every once in a while, and it's true that
many suggestions never get enough support to actually happen (or on further
research it is decided that the idea is not tenable), but brainstorming about
them to get ideas in the open is still a great thing. The history of OFBiz is
full of things like this where users and more casual contributors had ideas and
saw possibilities that others, even more involved contributors, totally missed
or never looked at that way. What I think would be fun, and ultimately useful
too, is to keep this mostly to brainstorming and not do too much comparing of
ideas.
BTW, if you want to brainstorm about one of the tiers (ie the Data, Logic, or
UI tiers) please use the other threads on those.
