We are using the node profile module to build up a database on taxonomic experts. Editors of this database should be able to create node profiles for arbitrary other users. This was not possible since node_familiy did not provide a permission like 'create others nodes' which can be assigned to roles. To implement this permission into node_family i had to extend nodefamily_nodeapi() a bit.

The patch for revision 1.19.2.14 containing all modifications is attached to this post.

one just needs to adjust the author. Drupal doesn't provide a permission for that, but yes that's not the deal of nodefamily. It could be solved by another module.
