[opencms-dev] Allowing Users and ProjectManagers to edit JSP

[Claus Priisholm]

The bad news, this is not easy in 6.x, as the roles (such as DEVELOPER 
which is what is required in order to edit JSPs) are hardcoded to 
specific user group (have a look at org.opencms.security.CmsRole class). 
You may be able to set a different group on the DEVELOPER role, but then 
that apply to all members of the group.

The good news is that in v. 7 roles/capabilities are more flexible 
(though I haven't checked that it will be possible to do exactly what 
you want).

In any case, granting JSP-permissions to more users should be done with 
some care...
