Basically, what they said is that you may want to allow more users to
create wiki without local users. So, does is means two different rights ?
On right to create any kind of subwikis, and one right to create only
subwikis without local users (workspace case).
Do you see the difference now ?
I agree with Edy. In the "wiki farm"
case, you want to restrict subwiki
creation to admins.
could you explain why?
In the "workspaces" case, you want any
user to be able
to create a workspace.
Personally I don't see any difference. With Caty's proposal D (and B),
there's only 1 concept too so making a difference doesn't make any sense.
The only different is that for the "farm" use case you allow local users
and I don't see why allowing local users should make a difference in who's
allowed to create a subwiki or not.
Thanks

I don't have feedback about the best option
to handle this from a
technical
point of view.
We have not seen the end of this debate...

Proposal B:
--------------
We create a new right (since we can thanks to Denis) called "SubWiki
creation right", and this right is needed to create a new subwiki. Then
we
can add it to XWikiAllGroup or XWikiAdminGroup.
--------------
Proposal C:
--------------
We create a new group called 'XWikiAllowSubWikiCreationGroup', and
everybody who is on this group can create new wikis.

WDYT?
