Hey Hadrian and Giacomo,
how things are proceeding? Are you facing some weird issues? Are you
close to the target?
Please keep us informed about your progresses :-)
Regards.

I saw the proposal on user@camel and it sounds great. I see potential
fringe benefits for the Camel project as well and volunteer to help out.
Great to hear!
I think I've found you on GitHub: if you agree, I'd add you as
committer to https://github.com/Tirasa/SyncopeCamel
I can provide some (more) guidance to Syncope internals, if needed.
Summarizing: Giacomo, Hadrian (and anyone else interested) will be
building a PoC - based on referenced proposal - on the above mentioned
GitHub repository. This mailing list will be used for any related
discussion (if you agree, I will enable the mail notification from
GitHub to dev@).
Once done, we will start discussing whether to a start a complete
implementation (somewhere in the official Syncope SVN) based on PoC
results.
Do you (or anyone else here at dev@) see any problem with this working
model? I am proposing this way (instead of a bare dedicate branch on
SVN) mainly because Giacomo is not committer (for Hadrian, being an
ASF member, there would be no issue).
WDYT (especially fellow PMC members)?
Regards.

Hi all,
in order to be able to freely experiment with this proposal, I've
created an almost empty repository at GitHub
https://github.com/Tirasa/SyncopeCamel
where Giacomo will be soon push a simple overlay project, based on
Syncope 1.2.0-SNAPSHOT.
The idea is to override there some Syncope components (UserController,
RoleController, ...) and introduce the ProvisioningManager - being
still
able to successfully run the relevant integration tests.
Once we've get a working PoC there, we could start discussing
whether to
perform a full implementation here, and also the pmost suitable way to
accept Giacomo's contribution.
WDYT?
Regards.

Thanks for your reply! I really appreciate your interest. I'm planning
to release a POC in the next months, before the end of February,
because i can work on it only two days for week.
I will keep you updated in the next weeks.
Best Regards.

Oggetto: Re: [Proposal] An Apache Camel Integration Proposal
It looks pretty cool! It's great to see the further integration of
Syncope with other Apache projects (e.g. CXF). What sort of time frame
do you envisage for this task + for what version of Syncope - 1.2/1.3?
Colm.

Hi,
Apache Syncope is a great solution for Identity Management. In
this month I analyzed some use cases that led me to reflect
about the flexibility of provisioning process to adapt to
various (and sometimes very cumbersome) deployment scenarios.
The questions is: How well Syncope orchestrates the
provisioning? The
problem is that Syncope lacks of a provisioning manager: this
component could allow an easy and fully customizable definition
of provisioning
control logic.
My proposal [1] consists in a redefinition of the (user and role)
controller concept, through the Apache Camel framework. Why this
framework? I think that Camel fits the need of easy control logic
definition. Moreover Camel supports a wide range of external
components: it means that it can be easily integrated with
existing frameworks, like Activiti.
