Phil, MediaWiki contains a built-in rights management interface. It makes more sense to me if we fixed up one extension for Wikimedia which combined Makesysop, Makebot, Giverollback and now this...thing...into something manageable and useful. Configuration can determine what groups can grant and revoke which rights. Four different pages to do similar tasks is pushing the boundaries.

Well... No promises, but I can say I'm interested in giving that a go. I suppose we could write a "watered down" version that allows the setting of certain rights that are set up with the extension.

-- Phil PS Good to hear from you, even if you are rightfully chastising me for my woeful ignorance ;-)

That goes from me, too. I haven't seen you around in a while and it's good to see you still exist :)
