Hi. First I want to thanks the Gallery team for the superb release of version 3 beta of the best photo gallery system. Just successfully installed and migrated my users/albums from a ver2 install. It seems that there's no way that I can set user level permission for an album. What I'm trying to do is to set an full permission to the owner of an album, where he/she alone (and the admin) can has the full privilege (add/edit) on the album he/she owns. The permission interface only displays groups and I can't select a specific user. I'm not sure if I missed anything or it isn't available on this release. Can anyone please confirm? Thanks!

Gallery 3 only offers album/group level permissions. We don't offer user level permissions. There are a variety of reasons why we do this, but the primary one is performance. However, we do need to modify our permissions to allow the owner full perms on the albums she owns. I've filed a ticket for it here: http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/gallery/ticket/452
