Just a quick heads up for Graham, mainly :
we have had a BoF last thursday where we discussed about using ADS to
manage the ASF. To make a long story short, we agreed on a few things :
- we have to install ADS on the zone Graham created
- we must first try to manage our own users (ADS users)
- we have to define complete and validated uses-cases for what we want to do
- to avoid f*cking up access to the ASF servers for our users, we must
be sure that we keep the current text file updated
- we might start with access to Confluence, as it's not a critical component
- some sites like Jim's page
(http://people.apache.org/~jim/committers.html) or
http://people.apache.org/committers.html might also be seen as perfect
target for initial experimentations

I suggest we discuss that during AMS, and have a chat session then.
Alex is just totally dead (he finished the release last night), and
will be flying tomorrow morning.
I emphathise, was flying over Easter and was wiped out afterwards...
I may also create a place on the directory wiki where we can discuss
the project.
That may be an idea.
Part of the driver for getting a proper LDAP server going is that I
have just landed some more user friendly login module options with
httpd, meaning that it is easier to create a per user website (backed
by LDAP) for the ASF.
PS : I saw that you were moving from Africa to London ? A new job
there ?
Been in London for the last year or so, finally got round to updating
my details :)
Regards,
Graham
