Hi Florian,

this is defiantly a weakness of CMIS in the area of DMS/Collaboration. Havi=
ng a protocol with a standardized way to access users and groups would help=
 repository vendors a lot  to support the CMIS protocol. Users and groups a=
re nearly the same important as documents and folders.

Betreff: Re: Access to the Principal List in the ACL Editor

Hi Marcel,

CMIS deliberately doesn't provide any user management functionalities.=20
This includes listing users. There is no standardized way to get all reposi=
tory users.
Just getting all repository users is probably also not what you want.=20
Assume a repository with 100,000 users. It wouldn't be really helpful to ha=
ve them all in the drop-down box.
