Grouper Developers Forum

Hey,

Based on the last Paccman call, and since we use the term "privilege" for 
classes and methods involving internal grouper privileges, I will call the 
thing that is assigned for Grouper Privilege Management a "permission".  This 
isn't to say what it will be called on UI's or documentation or whatever, but 
for the API (classes/methods), a privilege is and will be the builtin Grouper 
thing (READ or UPDATE on a group), and a permission is something that you 
define to assign to a role or membership in a role.  Also, this isn't to say 
that grouper privileges will never be modeled as permissions... :)

Is there any discussion on this topic?

Let me know asap

Thanks,
Chris
