Beautiful work.

Anyone who worked on meaningful permissions and webdav?

Haven't looked at other cms but I could imaging rights like:

create new items
read existing items
update items (modify, new version)
delete items
admin item (permissions)

Any ideas?

It should be possible to set the rights in a way that the following scenarios are supported:

- a user can only read his own items
- a user can upload but not delete an item
- a user can only update her own items
- a user can update but not delete items

and the like.

Currently only read, write and admin are meaningful. If you have write permissions you can delete items of other users in a folder.

The current webdav support doesnt work for microsoft properly. Dave mentioned another module that might be better. Any experience with it?
