Re: [xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Who has the right to create a new subwiki/workspace ?

Hi, When you are mixing subwikis with workspaces into a single 'wiki' notion, you are creating problems for Admins that want to have a mixed setup (both workspaces and subwikis). They might want to let regular users create workspaces but allow only admins to create subwikis. Regarding your proposals, I'd be +1 for a createWiki right (B). However, there are 2 problems here: 1) Lack of consistency with the other rights since we don`t have any createSpace/createDocument rights now. Would be nice though to have CRUD rights for each element in XWiki's model (wiki, space, document, class, object), but that's a different topic. 2) Same problem as above, there is no distinction between wiki and workspace and no way to allow one over the other. Proposal A does not help much and Proposal B would be just a hack for a first implementation (not for the long run). In the current implementation, a way to limit workspace creation is to assign specific 'view' rights to the WorkspaceManager.CreateNewWorkspace document. Wiki creation is only available to admins, but if we remove that limitation from the wiki-manager-api java code, then the same thing can be done as for workspaces.
