Plan permission levels with Mind Manager Templates for SharePoint
I spent the weekend working out the permission level templates for the Mind Manager Templates for SharePoint project. Here’s a quick three minute screencast. As always, your feedback will be very helpful as I continue to expand on this project.
There has been so much interest in the templates, I have added a second workshop to handle the overflow requests. Please register right away to reserve a guaranteed seat.

Looks great Mark, they are really coming along. These are great tools for people who have to administrate a site as there can really be no misundertandings between a team of admins. One thing occurred to me as I was watching your video… just imagine if you were actually configuring the site as you were drawing the MindMap – that that could just change the world for SharePointers!
re Mick : “just imagine if you were actually configuring the site as you were drawing the MindMap”
I actually watched this webcast thinking that MindSharp or someone did such interface,
otherwise I do not see the great value except a MASSIVE time consuming :
1- enterprise site architect defines all these settings on MindManager, may be he does it PER site (?) = time.
2- give it to a site admin and ask him/her to apply all these settings that have been defined
3- risk that the site admin do not apply the same as it is displayed on the MindManager as it will mean so many refresh of the page that the attention focus will go away.
sorry to be on the negative side.
On the positive side: I guess this is actually useful if the enterprise architect want to define a global settings for ALL sites.
but then give it to a team of dev/admin and ask them to LOCK these settings so that no site admin can change those.
