[15:38:26 EDT(-0400)] <athena> EricDalquist: we've created a new JSON group browsing service for UP-2047
[15:38:36 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> neat
[15:38:36 EDT(-0400)] <athena> but i have no idea what it should be doing for security
[15:38:41 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> heh
[15:38:48 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> I was just going to ask about that
[15:38:53 EDT(-0400)] <athena> actually something drew brought up
[15:38:54 EDT(-0400)] <athena> yeah
[15:39:01 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> you need to make sure that the user accessing the service actually has permission to view the data
[15:39:16 EDT(-0400)] <athena> things like the channel registry javascript service weren't an issue because you have to pass in an IPerson to get data back
[15:39:17 EDT(-0400)] <athena> yeah
[15:39:26 EDT(-0400)] <athena> i have no idea how to actually do that though
[15:39:33 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> probably need to go dig through the existing groups channel to figure that out
[15:39:36 EDT(-0400)] <athena> i'm not very familiar with uportal's permissions model
[15:39:42 EDT(-0400)] <athena> hmm ok
[15:39:57 EDT(-0400)] <athena> i wasn't sure if it used permissions or if it was just only available to admins
[15:40:08 EDT(-0400)] <athena> but since that's an IServant thing i guess it must be using some permissions
[15:40:15 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> it uses permissions
[15:40:19 EDT(-0400)] <athena> oh ok
[15:40:22 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> you can do delegated groups admin in uPortal
[15:40:25 EDT(-0400)] <athena> maybe i'll see if drew has time to look at that
[15:40:34 EDT(-0400)] <athena> ah, excellent
[15:40:34 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> give user or group X to manage groups Y
[15:40:47 EDT(-0400)] <athena> does the current channel manager support that as well?
[15:40:56 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> groups manager you mean?
[15:41:11 EDT(-0400)] <athena> no
[15:41:22 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> channel manager doesn't manage groups ...
[15:41:34 EDT(-0400)] <athena> right - i was wondering if the channel manager channel allows users to only admin certain channels
[15:41:40 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> ah
[15:41:41 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> yes
[15:41:45 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> that was added in ... 3.1
[15:41:50 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> the new MANAGE permission
[15:42:06 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> awills should know about that
[15:42:12 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> he helped write it I think
[15:42:28 EDT(-0400)] <athena> hm
[15:42:35 EDT(-0400)] <athena> ok, so we'll need to re-create that as well in the new portlet
[15:42:46 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> I think that is baked into channel registry manager
[15:43:24 EDT(-0400)] <athena> oh ok
