ajmitchamazing, life on the mailing list11:21
dendrobatesalmost a mutiny.11:30
dendrobatesWe need users to speak up.11:30
dendrobatesajmitch: you wrote the wiki that they were referring to didn't you?11:31
fernandowe need to decide what way to follow11:31
dendrobateswe do,  I think there are many environments, where Ubuntu is not considered because we have not solved these problems.11:33
ajmitchdendrobates: yes, following a session at UDS in mt view11:38
dendrobatesajmitch: why do you want to switch to FDS?11:40
=== slackwarelife [n=slackwar@host95-187-dynamic.58-82-r.retail.telecomitalia.it] has joined #ubuntu-directory
ajmitchbecause I felt it would be a better fit, and the people that I talked with thought so as well11:41
dendrobatesI am familiar with it's former incarnations, netscape, sun-one, ...  It certainly does have the ability to support a large enterprise.11:43
ajmitchI've become more familiar with openldap, and it is rather easier to setup & get going11:45
dendrobatesOpenldap has come a long way though.  dynamic groups, overlay support. AD integration.  And it is certainly lean and mean.  At my last job we used both Sun LDAP and openldap.11:45
ajmitchyes, openldap has improved a lot in recent releases11:45
ajmitchit's what I'm currently using at work11:46
dendrobatesI have been toying with adding ppolicy support with a basic config to the package.11:46
ajmitchI saw on your wiki page that you wanted client support for AD - what do you have in mind there?11:48
dendrobatesThat is really just pam stuff.  using what ever is appropriate pam_krb5, or pam_winbind.  It works pretty well in feisty.11:49
dendrobatesI think we need that if we are going to start kicking MS out of some small businesses.11:50
ajmitchright, apart from configuring it out of the box11:50
dendrobatesWill you be at the London sprint?11:51
ajmitchI seriously doubt it11:51
dendrobatesare you a canonical employee?11:51
ajmitchno11:51
ajmitchlondon is a long way to swim11:52
dendrobatesahh.  I am on the new server team.11:52
ajmitchyes, I know11:52
ajmitchI applied, didn't get a response after UDS :)11:52
dendrobatesSorry:'(11:52
dendrobatesare you in the USA?11:53
ajmitchhardly anything you need to apologise for11:53
ajmitchNew Zealand11:53
dendrobatesFarther swim for you than me.11:53
ajmitchyeah, it was a long long flight to spain11:54
dendrobatesI am chomping at the bit to get the directory stuff fixed up.11:55
ajmitchgood11:55
ajmitchit's been missing for awhile11:56
dendrobatesWhat ever happened with that wiki, how come no spec?11:56
ajmitchprobably lack of time to write it all up11:56
dendrobateswere others interested?11:56
ajmitchI gather you'll be trying to set aside time for this stuff for gutsy+1?11:56
ajmitchthere were others, but few developers11:57
dendrobatesI will be pushing for it.11:57
ajmitchthat may change if you can sell the idea well11:57
dendrobatesI will certainly try.11:58
ajmitchI gather the server team is running smoothly now for gutsy11:58
dendrobatesI am too new to be running smoothly, but the others seem to know what they are doing.11:59
ajmitchheh12:00
ajmitchjust started a week or two ago?12:00
dendrobatestwo weeks tomorrow12:00
dendrobatesdo you maintain openldap?12:01
ajmitchthe package? no12:03
dendrobatesit is a complicated package, I am still try to figure it out.12:04
ajmitchdo you have much debian packaging experience?12:05
