"Integrate RedBack / Spring into Archiva."
What is the advantage of redback compared to spring-security (aka
"acegi") ?
spring-security allready supports role-based secutiry, DB user
store and
"remember me".
Nico.
Redback is an RBAC implementation.
Don't forget that 80% of what Archiva uses Redback for is the web
application user/role management.
The Redback <--> Spring integration is likely to take the form of
another acegi authorization provider, but it's still a little early
yet to speculate on how this will occur.
A more general question would be ... do we need RBAC for Archiva?
or can we get away with standard JAAS Roles?
An even more general question would be - it works, why change it? :)
