Forum OpenACS Q&A: Re: Roles (was: French and English (AU) locales)

I think there are several problem with roles:

- Since ACS Site-wide admin (including system security)
  rights are necessary to manage new users, it is not
  easy to delegate it to volunteers who are willing to
  help with the routine tasks.

- The roles and rights of Professor, Teaching/Class
  Assistant, and Staff in dotLRN etc. are still very
  unclear (which is also related to the the administrative
  problem above).

The department - subject - class hierarchy, cannot be
properly translated, anyway, but must be abused since
it is not deep enough.
