ACL – Old Role groups vs New Role Principals

$

In the past when an ACL policy rule was created that applied to a specific role, I can see that the principal referenced by WTAclEntry is of type wt.org.WTGroup. This “Role Group” shares the name as the container team role.

 

For more recently created but equivalent rules, I can see the referenced principal is of type wt.org.WTRolePrincipal.

 

Example

Old rule - ‘principal = Group’ and ‘principal name = teamMembers’

New rule - ‘principal = Role’ name ‘principal name = Team Members’

 

Anybody know when and why this change was made by PTC?

 

We will embark on a big ACL clean up shortly, is there any benefit to update old rules that currently reference role groups so they reference role principals, which appears to be the new standard?
