Hi Mike ! The problem is our app have to be able to retrieve a Customer LDAP server. So we won't be able to know groups will be into the LDAP server.
To be concise, when we'll set up the app, we'll have to retrieve the LDAP groups, insert them in django ORM, then make the link (with a table, so a model) between LDAP groups extracted and our App groups The App permissions will follow the same principle, stored in the Django ORM (which is the regular case) and thanks to the app (something django admin-like) we will link the permissions to the App groups I don't know how clear I am ...
