This makes sense now. It would (will) be great to add a bit of history in the documentation. > There are a bunch of changes I would like to see in D::P::A::RBAC, mainly > removing specific DBs for DBI or Dancer::Plugin::Database, cleaning up much > of the code, removing a lot of boilerplate and duplicity. Which is kinda what I did last night. IMHO, there should only be a "*::Credentials::DBI", keeping (and deprecating) the engine-specific modules only for backwards compatibility. > If you would like to: > A. take over Dancer::Plugin::Auth::RBAC > B. rewrite it from scratch using the same name > C. rewrite it from scratch using a different name > D. write something new altogether under the same name > E. write something new altogether under a different name > > you're more than invited, and I'll happily grant you all the permissions you > need. Well, I don't know if rewrites are actually needed or useful (breaking compatibility). My original thought was to find the module project on Github and propose some pulls, anyway I'm willing to take it over and set up (update?) the project on Github. > Whichever you choose, I'm sure you'll do a great job. :) Well, let's see!
