You mean, tiki already has all of it, except for the possibility that users define their own groups?

manager permission in order to appoint a user able to manage the group(s) that they belong too.

Yes, something like that. AnyUser, or at least a certain type of PrivilegedUsers shouls be able to define new groups at will, and "invite" people to "their" groups, and then set per-group permissions to parts of the tiki site... I can imagine following uses:

  • invite a group of people for a private discussion.
  • Prepare a project/meeting
  • documentation for kind-of-secret project that should not be seen by everyone.
  • members-only chat in a separate room
  • members-only forum


etc.

How difficult is it to implement this? As in "which files are affected" and "how much additional coding".

Bear in mind that I'm new to tiki - I only really looked at LDAP auth code so far.
