Slide architecture is well designed. In my opinion, the best way to work is to build a specific Slide Security store which is using the Turbine/Jetspeed security model. By doing this, it is very easy to assign a specific Turbine/Jetspeed users or groups to a Slide ObjectNode (content) for a specific action (read, write, manage, ...). Futhermore, it is not necessary to change the default implementation of the Security helper class. Until now, I didn't map the Slide action to the Jetspeed action but it should be nice
I'm building a complete jetspeed application which has this kind of "Turbine/Jetspeed Security Slide Store". I can send you the code if you want. I add only less then 10 classes and build 2 new jetspeed services. It is not a big coding. Now, this security stuff is finish and I'm building CMS portlets (A simple CMS portlet Viewer & a CMS admin portlet). Send me a mail if you want the code and the demo. It is a simple extension of the current Jetspeed code & templates. Via other mail, I can give more info step by step on this code. I' very interesting to receive some feedback on it.

I thought it would be easy to plug in a different security options for Slide, i.e. a org.apache.slide.common.Security implementation that wraps JetspeedSecurity. > > However, after looking at the slide source, it may be more work than I expected as there is A LOT of hard coding when it comes to Slide's service implementation.

However, I do see many similarities like actions and such between the two security models. We would probably need something like a documents.xreg registry to tie security references to Slide documents and then somehow tie that straight into Slide itself. > > I will keep looking at source and examples at let you know if come up with any revelations. > > p.s. > > In regards to the email you sent me.
