[jira] Commented: (CASSANDRA-547) authentication and authorization functions (stage 1)

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-547?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12783940#action_12783940 ] 

Eric Evans commented on CASSANDRA-547:
--------------------------------------

A couple of things... 1)  This patch doesn't apply, could you please rebase? and 2) I'm starting to pick my way through the thread on cassandra-user, but it would be helpful if you could either summarize with a more comprehensive specification either here or in the wiki (the wiki being my preference).
