Suggestion for 2.3

Improve gsh by adding readline like capabilities (line editing, tab completions, history, etc).  Explore incorporating Jline2 into the current beanshell approach or possibly adopting groovysh as the base.

I know we are working on 2.2 documentation and support, but I am also thinking about 2.3, I added some tentative items to the roadmap of things I am interested in.  If you have thoughts or other suggestions let us know.  Note, this is preliminary and will likely be prioritized and changed.  Other Grouper team members will be adding their items as well.

Release	Item	Description
2.3 (tentative)	Improve folder privileges	Change folder privileges so that instead of the STEM privilege, there is an ADMIN privilege on folders.  The ADMIN privilege would mean you have all rights to the folder, you can rename it, delete it, change privileges, and effectively every other privilege.  The CREATE privilege would be changed to also include creating folders (in addition to groups and attributes).  And the STEM_ATTR_READ and STEM_ATTR_UPDATE would remain the same.  Note, so the name doesnt conflict with the group ADMIN privilege, the stem privilege will be called STEM_ADMIN.
2.3 (tentative)	Improve loader	Add the ability for the loader to run on multiple nodes to it has better availability.  Also add the option for unresolvable subjects to not cause loader jobs to fail (note, if the source is unavailable it should fail and not remove all members, and it should only allow unresolvables up to a certain configurable threshold)
2.3 (tentative)	Finish the new UI, replace admin and lite UI	Add features into the new UI (from 2.2) so that everything from the admin UI and the lite UI can be performed in the new UI.  Remove the admin UI and lite UI (redirect old links).  Add user based auditing and overall auditing.  Add new features like the ability to easily configure "rules" in the UI
2.3 (tentative)	Add remaining attribute/permission operations to WS	Add ability to manage attribute and permission definitions 100% via the WS.  Currently many things can be done via the WS but not all.  Currently the missing operations can be performed by the UI/API
2.3 (tentative)	Standard authorization API	Define and implement a standard API for authorization.  This is a CIFER effort and might be based on SCIM and might be readonly for 2.3.  This would be a web service and might also include messaging.
