[opencms-dev] CmsRoles

[Claus Priisholm]

Hi

Yup, it is nice and easy to extend the functionality. Still in the 
hacking category though, but if it works why quibble. But won't I get 
into trouble later on when say adding a user - it seems the security 
manager will make sure that the ACCOUNT_MANAGER role is in place before 
letting me add a user or do similar operations?

Thanks
Claus
