Dear ODK team, We started up our own ODK server and it went very smoothly! We are very much interested to give users more fine-grained permissions regarding to reading/writing/editing and the current roles are not really sufficient. In the 'User Settings' tab we see a greyed out option regarding 'Role Settings', we are very interested as to what these settings entail and when they would be available. Thanks in advance!

Welcome to the ODK forum, @casdemooij! We're glad you're here. When you get a chance, please [introduce yourself on this forum thread](https://forum.getodk.org/t/-/6671). I'd also encourage you to add a picture as your avatar because it helps build community! The Get ODK team recently published [a roadmap for ODK](https://getodk.org/roadmap) showing what they're working on. It doesn't have exact dates, but rather just Now, Next, and Future categories - as it can be hard to predict the exact time something will be done. Currently there's a card for "Enhancing user permissions" and it is in the Future group. The ODK team is always interested in hearing from users. If you could describe your use case(s) in #Ideas it will help them when they begin work on that functionality.
