Hola y'all.

Need a python class with minimal dependencies that abstracts users/groups 
available (/etc/passwd and /etc/groups)- 
further, this class should offer methods for adding/removing users/groups, and 
adjusting existing records.
So... manager class, and potentially a seperate class encapsulating individual 
user records, and group records.

Interface needs to be pretty simple- the first intention of it is to handle 
useradd/groupadd calls from ebuilds.  
That's the initial intention- it will likely be extended to handle 
http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/glep/glep-0027.html

portage uid/gid management.  The specifics of the format for g27 haven't been 
nailed down, so it's pretty much up to 
the person that implements it (xml wouldn't be an issue).

Question/what not, either pop your head into #gentoo-portage, or send me an 
email.
