Hi, following up last week mail I prepared a GSIP to improve the authorization framework built into the GeoServer catalog: http://geoserver.org/display/GEOS/GSIP+57+-+Improving+GeoServer+authorization+framework
Opinions and votes welcomed! Cheers Andrea PS: Also, at GeoSolutions we spent a bit of time lately thinking about security and wrote down a tech report on the possible technologies to secure a geospatial server, evaluating pros and cons of each (including the all popular security proxy approach).
