th1ahighvoltage: ayt?19:40
highvoltagetya19:40
th1aYou're working at Revolution Linux, right?19:40
highvoltageth1a: indeed19:41
th1aI just remembered that a few years ago we were talking to them about their system for integrating various applications on their servers.19:41
th1aThey had some pluggable thingy.  ;-)19:41
highvoltagehmm, not sure what it was at the time. might have been webforge. or it might have been the configuration management system we use, bcfg2.19:42
th1aWell, it was for, say, keeping user databases in sync.19:42
highvoltageah probably OAPS19:43
th1aThat rings a bell.19:43

highvoltage(I know the RL website is sucky, I take no responsibility in that :) )19:44
th1alol19:44
th1aThat's what edubuntu needs.19:44
highvoltageyeah unfortunately the "O" in "Open Accound Provisioning System" is a misnomer :-/19:45
highvoltages/Accound/Account/g19:45
th1aYes...19:45
highvoltagethe main developer on that is pushing on changing that, so perhaps it might one day.19:46
th1aYes, there was some possibility of it happening or we wouldn't have been talking about it at all.19:47
th1aWe're going to have to come up with some kind of strategy -- even if it is just the simplest thing possible for the next release.19:55
highvoltagein schooltool?19:56
th1aI mean for integration between pieces in Edubuntu.19:57
highvoltageyes, indeed. at least most things seem to integrate quite well with AD/ldap, and we're really interested in running a domain on samba419:58
th1aSome perl scripts written by the Zentyal guys...19:58
highvoltagebut I know that that's not enough by far19:58
th1aMaybe we should just focus on LDAP.19:58
th1aYeah, that might be the best approach as far as user and group management.20:03
th1aJust put the message passing architectures out of my mind.20:04
highvoltageOAPS is so complicated with that that I can't begin to wrap my mind around it.20:05
th1aWell, yes, that too.20:05
vmlintuis samba4 usable yet?21:37
