Steve,
What are the advantages of having two groups? I would think
that
having groups would start paying off when three or more are required to
achieve additional granularity. For instance, we have several dozen users
all of whom
have read access to everything in every depot and each of whom has write
access to the depots of his or her application(s.) Then, we have the
'p4admin'
user and a handful of superusers with admin privileges. Why would we want
to implement Perforce groups? What am I missing?
