[ome-users] Sharing with OMERO.web

[Woodbridge, Mark R]

The group that the user was a member of at the time of upload? Unfortunately that was the 'default' group (as I wasn't using sharing at that time) so I guess that would allow access to everyone's images. Perhaps the only option is to get the others to log in as the user who is leaving?
