> Hello all,
>
> I've been struggling with some Loginmanager/Membership issues, and was
> wondering if my concerns were unique.
>
> I feel that it's important for LoginManager to interoperate with the
> rest of Zope's security machinery. Specifically, Members/Users in
> LoginManager User Sources need to be listed (or be capable of being
> listed) in the local roles interface.
>
> The reason I feel this is important, is to make it possible to easily
> delegate control of an area of the site to a member stored in a
> LoginManager.
>
> Currently, I've gotten to the point where members are listed in the
> local roles interface, and I can create local roles for members.
>
> I have run into what appears to be a security bug, described here:
> http://lists.zope.org/pipermail/zope-ptk/2000-September/001722.html
>
> Anyway, I figured I'd ask and see if this concerns anyone else. So
> please respond to the list or privately (but not both, please), and I'll
> summarize to the list.
>
> How important is it for you to be able to assign local roles to users
> stored in User Sources using the local roles interface?
>
> 5 - Critical/Immediate need
> 4 - Very Important
> 3 - Important
> 2 - Not Very Important
> 1 - Not Important At All
> 0 - You're Nuts!
>
> Thanks,
>
> Michael Bernstein.
>
> P.S. If I don't get enough responses, I'll probably repost this to
> zope-dev.
