Re: Security framework issues

[Stanley A. Klein]

Jorge -

It may not be a direct answer, but it could be very important.  One of my
biggest concerns is how to implement various security approaches using
GNUe.  In my view, the underlying security has to come mainly from the
operating system and database management system.  If there is a method of
providing RBAC using PostgreSQL, this could probably become a major
capability for GNUe to use.

I can't read Spanish, but the web page you give has an English version.  I
will download the system and try to learn what I can from it, and will look
forward to seeing the translation of the documentation.

Thanks.
