Would it be possible to change Roles to work more like Users?
It would be far easier to manage if the /slide/roles/[role] could be managed by adding a collection with the same name as the user you want to add to that role, i.e. /slide/roles/root/root and /slide/roles/root/Ollie would put root and Ollie in the root role, or /slide/roles/user/john and /slide/roles/user/tom to be members of the user role and so forth. The current method of fetching the member list property, appending the new user and proppatch'ng it back is cumbersome and error prone. It would be cleaner and easier to use and easier to program with the client library if the mechanism was the same as adding a user with mkcol to the /slide/users/ collection, yes? If the group agrees, I will do the patch and submit it. I just don't want to do the work if nobody else thinks it is a good idea. Michael Oliver CTO Matrix Intermedia Inc. 3325 N.
