Stems cant have permissions, only roles (special kinds of groups), and 
individual subjects (in the context of a role, i.e. a membership).  Ok?

Thanks,
Chris

It is possible to add/remove permissions (not privileges) to/from stems, 
right ?

If so, what would that code look like ?

Role role = childStem.addChildRole("childRole", "Child Role");
role.addMember(SubjectTestHelper.SUBJ0, true);

AttributeDef attributeDef = childStem.addChildAttributeDef("perm",
AttributeDefType.perm);
attributeDef.setAssignToGroup(true);
attributeDef.store();
AttributeDefName attributeDefName =
childStem.addChildAttributeDefName(attributeDef, "permName", "perm
name");

role.getPermissionRoleDelegate().assignRolePermission(attributeDefName,
PermissionAllowed.ALLOWED);

// what do I do here ?
childStem.addPermission?();

Apologies for my confusion.
