Hi Angela,

BTW, is the scope of an access control entry the item it is assigned

this is not specified. the spec states, that a policy or an ace
may affect other nodes that the one the policy/ace is assigned to.
thanks - this is good to know.
[...] Unfortunately, addAccessControlEntry() throws a
PathNotFoundException if the node doesn't exist …
correct. that's the expected behaviour.
Tobias Bocanegra told me on [EMAIL PROTECTED] that (IIUC) the access control
entries are not copied to the staging workspace if the staging node is
updated, which makes perfect sense. I hope it will conform to the
upcoming JSR-283 - I didn't find anything in the spec about this.
because this is not specified. the specification does not require
the access control information to be stored in the jcr content.

please be also aware that the ac section in jsr 283 was refactored
and the code present with jackrabbit-core will be completely
reworked.
OK, it appears to be worth waiting a while. The proposed final draft is
scheduled for July 2008. Is it possible to anticipate if there will be
changes to the scope of the spec after the final draft?
Currently we're in the process of considering which features can be
delegated to the JCR repository, and in which way - regarding access
control, we're still a bit uncertain.
Thanks for your reply!
