Accessibility panel in GLI

[kjdon]

It would be nice if there was a pane in GLI where you could do authentication for your collection, rather than having to edit the collection config file by hand.

It would be part of the Format panel? Needs to be done after building.

The public/private switch would go there.

Also

Password protect at collection/document level

text box for group entry

Then someway of selecting documents to protect. A list of docs with check boxes? The collection tree with tick boxes?

An option to specify whether selected ones are protected/public.

This has low priority because we are thinking about doing a different authentication mechanism for greenstone 3 - adding metadata to each document about whether its public or private and which groups are allowed. So this panel may only be useful for greenstone2 and we are not supposed to do development for that.

Or perhaps just add collection level protection and groups box onto the General pane.
