Just thought I’d make a quick plug for a small perl query connector for PHPGACL, a pretty nice and unique general ACL solution. Seems like most other CMS’s roll their own ACL or permissions solution, so this is one of the few ‘drop-in’ systems available.
http://phpgacl.sourceforge.net
I posted the thing as a perl module to the mailing list, so i’ll put it up here later.
