[Moin-user] acl problem

[Kai Jaeger]

Eric, Marcel

thanks for your advice.

Of course you are right, Eric, it is more about being polite. When an
admin looks at "RecentChanges" he cannot see if the intention of a
certain user is to hide a page, which is a temporary issue anyway.
When he CAN see it it's too late because he is already looking at the
page.

Marcel, your remark pointed me into the right direction. My big
mistake was that the admin group rights got assign as "before"; of
course it must be default, it's to late otherwise to do anything about
this.

Thanks!

Kai
