Hi Alan,

The preview works great, really nice and even over VPN good performance, 
kudos to the team for this milestone!

One difference I notice is that I am able to edit pages in any 
project/community/usergroup space. This is not the case for my username 
in the current webapp. For example, I should not be able to edit pages 
in the Project_arc-process, but I did so in my test today. So, possibly 
permissions for admin are wider in the new model? Not sure, but thought 
I should report this. (BTW, I only tried edit, not create.)

Let me know if you need me to try anything to verify this or future 
changes to test the admin role edit privs.

Regards,
Michelle
