Grouper Users - Open Discussion List

[Chris Hyzer <>]

I think this will be in Grouper 2.0 or sooner (2.0 is our next major release 
since we will update the first version number during major releases, second 
digit for minor releases, and last digits for builds).

The stumbling block is that point in time should work off of a flattened 
membership table (as should notification/change log).  This means that 
generally in point in time, auditors might not care if there is an effective 
membership, or an immediate membership, or composite.  All they care about is 
if the member is in the group or not by any path.  Once we have a flattened 
membership table (which is also on the roadmap), then point in time will be 
possible.  Right now it is too complex to do point-in-time on all membership 
paths.  I will add the caveat that this is my design, I still need to vet it 
and prove that it will work.  :)

Thanks,
Chris

Subject: [grouper-users] auditing point in time

Hi Chris,

I finally got a change to look at your slides from the October
meeting.

On slide 22 you have "Auditing point in time - Point in time
auditing is on the roadmap". 

Can you (or anybody) expand on what you mean by "on the
roadmap"?

Thanks,

Scott
