Nope, I was using Permission.READ public static final Permission READ = new Permission(GROUP,"GenericRead",null,HUDSON_ADMINISTER);
Also, in this case I want the boolean value since I display different elements on the page depending on permission (don't show the delete button if they can't delete. Don't show the form if they don't have permission to write). However, that's good to know. I'll try using the Jenkins.READ/etc constants rather than the Permission class's.
