Hi,

We frequently get requests for restricting access to certain parts of a wiki. We currently use PermissionACL, but we are definitely interested in having a final solution for access control, which (at least in our view) should be part of MW core.

We would be happy to contribute in some way to getting this done, we might be able to assist in any of the subtasks identified earlier by Yury (in his email of august 24^th).

Cheers,

Erwin

Thanks Vitaliy !!! Very happy !!!  I will wait for the translation to have examples and concepts...

I want to use security per namespace, not per page in our case...

Cheers !
