If you've got edit permission on an authzgroup, then you can change its name to be the same as another existing authzgroup.

This causes some strange UI effects at worst, and probably causes worse problems somewhere else.

Is there any reason why changing the names of existing authzgroups should be allowed? And if so, name collisions should presumably be guarded against in both the name-changing and creation functions

It is possible to use the CKAN API to insert JSON format data into package extra values, but this data is displayed in the package edit form.

Example: Package ​http://ckan.net/package/hbz_unioncatalog in the API the extra value as a list:

"extras": {"publishingInstitution": ["http://lobid.org/organisation/DE-605", "http://lobid.org/organisation/DE-290"...

yet when you edit the package it loses all the quotes and brackets: ​http://ckan.net/package/edit/hbz_unioncatalog {{{​http://lobid.org/organisation/DE-605http://lobid.org/organisation/DE-290... }}} so when you save the package, the list is mangled into a bad string.

Full text from Pascal:

we encountered a Problem concerning accessing Arrays/Lists.

curl -XGET 'http://ckan.net/api/rest/package/hbz_unioncatalog'

will get you amongst others:

 "extras": {"publishingInstitution":
"[u'http://lobid.org/organisation/DE-605',
u'http://lobid.org/organisation/DE-290',
u'http://lobid.org/organisation/DE-38M',
u'http://lobid.org/organisation/DE-98',
u'http://lobid.org/organisation/DE-38',
u'http://lobid.org/organisation/DE-Kn41',
u'http://lobid.org/organisation/DE-82',
u'http://lobid.org/organisation/DE-107',
u'http://lobid.org/organisation/DE-929',
u'http://lobid.org/organisation/DE-Zw1',
u'http://lobid.org/organisation/DE-832']"}

but if I try to query this:

wget
'http://ckan.net/api/search/package?q=lobid&publishingInstitution="http://lobid.org/organisation/DE-605"'

I get only two packages, among the package "hbz_unioncatalog" is
missing. (These two packages have only one value for
"publishingInstitution").

The "extra/publishingInstitution"-Array was uploaded through a "curl
-XPUT ...
