user administration

This is simple module that sends out an email to the user upon password change.

The email is configurable at admin/user/settings.

Allows roles to inherit permissions from other roles.

[BM: This answers a need I wrote about that isn't quite filled by permission select module. Can't find where I wrote about it, so noting it here.]

Notifies administrator (site_mail) of new user registrations. Starting with Version 1.2 you can now define both the address it goes to and the subject and messages emailed. Starting with 1.8 you can get emails when someone updates there profile as well.

Version 1.2 has a bug in the profile code. Please upgrade to the latest version. When upgrading from 1.2. Please going into admin/settings/register_notify and reset to default.
Issues

As with all contributed modules, when considering submitting an issue:

This module allows site administrators to grant some roles the authority to assign selected roles to users, without them needing the administer permissions permission.

It provides its own tab in the user profile so that roles can be assigned without needing access to the user edit form.

Role Delegation supersedes the RoleAssign module. The following feature from RoleAssign is still missing — patches are welcome!

287914: Add role assignment widget on user/edit and admin/user/user/create

Allows users with 'administer users' permission and a role (specified in 'Access control') to edit and/or delete other users with a specified role.

If the user being edited has multiple roles, the user doing the editing must have permission to edit ALL of the user being edited's roles.

Also provides role-based control over user creation.

Works well in conjunction with the (optional) role_delegation module.
