I think we already had this in the prototype. Basically, it would be nice to access the landing zones from the project top level (were we have landing_zone and sample_data). Currently, there is only the folder of the user in landing_zone, but it appears empty. Only if I specify the complete path of a landing zone, I'm able to reach it. If I'm not conceptually wrong, enabling reading rights on the whole landing zone path would make it possible to mount/connect a project completely (in comparison to connecting to sample_data and each landing zone separately). Or would this be an security issue?

This is not done by purpose. Also, most likely it's an issue with iRODS ACL and not DavRods itself. I will look into this, possibly the taskflow transaction is missing an inheritance flag at some point.

Since technically related (I guess), I'm just adding this question here for now: The colleagues from BIH Proteomics were asking whether they could access the data of all their projects with one Webdav mount? So basically just mount https://cubi-omics-davrods-beta.bihealth.org/omicsZone/projects/. Would this be a security issue? Or is it actually possible to show only project paths which you have access to (I guess not)?

This behaviour is by design and I have not received any other requests to change it in 3 years, so considering this closed :)
