Re: [PHPiCalendar-DEV] publish.php with basic auth, write to user specific calendar..

[Blake C. <bl...@re...>]

Hey Wes,

As far as committing it to the svn repo, the only feasible way to do 
that would be via a new config var with an if switch at the proper 
location.  It wouldn't require much yet would offer the additional 
option.  I would describe it in a PRD as `Adhere Calendar Name to User 
Name`.  In the least, I figure I offer up my experience.

Is there another way to allow multiple users authenticated write to user 
specific files within the same directory?  I know there is the sub 
directory way thats described in the wiki.

Do you think this added logic can perform more to current specifications 
rather then simply hacking the publish code?

Thanks,

Blake
