IIRC, to get the user side menu you need to set $template_user_admin_menu in your theme to:
<td class="admin_menu"><a href="catmgr.php" title="Create, manage, and delete categories">My categories</a></td>
see the end of the first post in the thread.
- Yes, groups would be nice but I think it looked like that might require significant additional effort.
- Mass modification interface would be nice too.
This thing basically started as a solution to a problem I had, so I didn't really do it to solve any additional problems. This is why there is no bridging support, group perms, etc. My understanding is that coppermine NG will have a full permissions system. It seems like there are a lot of people who want various aspects of a full permissions system now though, so maybe I could be convinced to do it on some sort of consulting basis. PM if you're interested, otherwise it may be a while, as my schedule is currently pretty packed with other volunteer work.

PS Nibbler, thanks for translating the patch file into the thread, that looked like a herculean effort.
Hi All,
I just install the patched cpg version over the standard one.
In admin mode, I can add owner to categories, but after that. I don't see any change on the user side.
I reset the theme in order to use the standard one, but no change.
Two remarks regarding this mod.
- We could add a group instead of an user as Owner (in a professionnal use, more than one people should be able to do the same task)
- A config panel to mass-modify existing categories (We have more than 130 categories)
Many thanks for this mod!
