I like the idea of groups, but I don't like having to give someone full admin rights to be able to create/edit them.
We have a lot of projects, and I'm setting up spaces for each one. Ideally, each space has its own special groups (maybe spacename-developers, spacename-testers, and spacename-users). But, since I don't want to be a full-time group administrator, I'm making space "admins" permission users individually.
What I'd really like is the ability to create groups for a space, add/remove users to them, and permission them as desired. Thoughts?

Then a simple macro could be deployed to spaces allowing the people with the configured "maintain groups" privileges add users to the groups.
We're already thinking about creating such a plugin as many of our clients have this requirement. For more information, email me at gfraser at adaptavist.com

So yes this admin load is definitely one that should be passed over to space administrators. Perhaps a Space level "subscribe these user to the dedicated space group via a comma delimited list.
And at the same time the Space admin person needs to be able to view the members of a space specific group.

Next, all we need is the ability for space admins to create the groups. Note that creating a group is not a security-sensitive operation - only giving it privileges.

I would like to do some BiDi (bidirectional) tests here and kindly ask you to help me getting some.
Please email me when it's set up or about whatever I need to do.
Kind regards ~~~~
P.S. The JavaSkript tool buttons are very « cool » . I hope we can add a set / a lot of such buttons related to BiDi editing.
