[LON-CAPA-users] guest accounts advice

[Ray Batchelor]

Hi Felicia,
                Yes, cc role probably. But I was thinking about maybe a custom 
role, because I don't really want such people to be able to create (enroll) 
new users in the domain.  If you have any suggestions about how best to set 
up such a role, let me know.  The important thing is to enable the new user 
to readily see the power of the system without allowing them to mess it up.

The flip side would be to allow authoring but only private publication.  I 
don't know if that is possible.  It seems to me that the ability to create 
resources is as strong a selling point (stronger from my point of view) than 
the ability to import.

Cheers,
Ray
