[xwiki-devs] [vote] By default, allow registration rights to guest in an empty wiki
Hi devs, The current Rights implementation treats the registration as a special case, being the only right that is denied to guests in an empty wiki. I propose that we change this by default to be true, but allow it to be configured in xwiki.cfg (and only there, since guests can edit XWikiPreferences). Anyone against it? -- Sergiu Dumitriu http://purl.org/net/sergiu/

+1 to grant register right to XWikiGuest on an empty wiki. Why do you want to make this configurable ? since he already have all the other rights I don't see the point. -- Jean-Vincent Drean

Just to provide a way to have the old behavior, in case someone was actually using that... -- Sergiu Dumitriu http://purl.org/net/sergiu/

Isn't it Back^Wawkward compatibility ? :) Sorry, just joking but who on earth would want everyone to have _all_ the rights on his wiki but the one of creating an account ? -- Jean-Vincent Drean

Someone who wants 100% anonymity... Managing users is much simpler when there's only one user, the almighty Guest. Anyway, the code is there (my computer), what harm can it do? -- Sergiu Dumitriu http://purl.org/net/sergiu/

Results: 4 +1 Since I'm the only one that sees a possible usecase for a configuration, for the moment I'm not including it. -- Sergiu Dumitriu http://purl.org/net/sergiu/
