Scott added a new level of authentication: the "publish" layer of  
authentication.  It is probably all part of AuthUser.

How are you setting up publishing?  If you have a page that is say  
Group-Drafts/ArticleName, then is published to Group/ArticleName, you  
would give the @publish group of users permission to edit Group --  
they would not get administrator privileges, it would be permission  
to edit the group.

I'm not sure if UserAuth allows this, but I know that basic PmWiki  
authentication and AuthUser does.
