Permissions. It added tons of small scale permissions (like per-file read permissions) instead of wildcarding The new version fixes both of these problems. And it's GPLed. Now off to pick the right source repository... [Ockham's Flashlight] Hi Stu...one point here -- generating lots of small scale permissions is the point!  See erights.org.  But...if you know that substantially all of the permissions in a category are being used (like all of them), then I guess a wildcard is OK.  Wait -- it's not.  The reason is that in the future, you may be granting a permission, due to the wildcard, that you really didn't mean to. Stay small, stay granular. 10:49:55 PM
