I am a bit more confused after this than before :-)<div><br></div><div>How can Avatar be a resource? It represents the actual user, correct?</div><div>Isnt' there a concept of a Principal / User that has nothing to do with actual URL responses / routing / etc.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Sorry if I am asking basic questions, but sometimes it is hard to figure out from the high-level docs how all the pieces fit together... </div><div><br></div><div>Thank you in advance</div><div>Jacek<br>

<div><br></div><div>twisted.web doesn't implement role-based authorization or anything like it. If it did, it would use a specific object that implemented that role-based auth, not the avatar (which is an implementation of a protocol interface).</div>
