In this particular case the other coaches don't need to view the CV of the "new" coach. Since they all work at the same school they pretty much know already what's going on. This just gives them a way to manage their own "permissions" to view the team records that doesn't involve an email to the

Alright, forget the cron job. Whenever a vote comes in, compute percentage, check to see if voting is done and set permissions. On Mar 8, 2:43 am, Álvaro Justen [Turicas] wrote: > On Mon, Mar 8, 2010 at 02:31, weheh wrote: > > Seems like a straight-forward thing to implement on top of auth. You

Seems like a straight-forward thing to implement on top of auth. You create a group and allow new user membership to the group if you get a majority of votes. Add vote-count percentage as a field to auth_user. And then run a cron job that periodically looks at percentage and determines whether or n
