[gentoo-dev] ANN: Gentoo Linux Development Wiki available

[Zach Welch]

Hello World,

We recently deployed another machine to serve up a MoinMoin Wiki
(written in pure python) aimed at supporting Gentoo Linux development
project documentation.  This is now an "offically sanctioned"
development resource, and one that we hope will serve the community well
into the future:

http://wiki.dev.gentoo.org/gentoo/moin.cgi

I encourage everyone to explore its present content, which currently
exists of little more than my old static cvs.g.o website moved and
restructured into wiki form.  I have also tried to provide room for
others to add their own projects and pages there; please contact me in
#gentoo-udder on IRC or email wiki-owner at gentoo.org if you would like
help adding a significant amount of new content.

To be clear, I see this Wiki as a staging area for documentation that
will someday end up on the main site (or not); the new site will not be
a replacement for our current guideXML documentation.  While I intend
primarily to use this site for my own documentation writing, I hope it
can also foster a better sense of community than the current islands of
developer documentation provided on cvs.gentoo.org and be useful to a
much broader audience.

At the very least, the nearly plain text input used by this Wiki
could allow the conversion to XML to become the very last step in the
documentation writing process - instead of an integral part of it.
Specifically, the Wiki itself produces XML that can probably be
transformed (with the right XSLT magic) into guideXML.  In addition to
this Wiki->guideXML transform, I believe it should also be possible for
the Wiki to serve up guideXML documentation directly.

If someone would like to help with this XSLT magic, please find me on
#gentoo-udder to talk about implementing it; better, that person can
just post the required code and procedures somewhere on the wiki itself.

I hope the entire Gentoo development community benefits from this
resource, and I look forward to seeing all the great ideas that I hope
will soon begin to appear there.

Cheers,

Hi,
        excuse me if I email you directly.
I work as system administrator and here (where I'm employed, which isn't zucchetti, this is only provider) I've build
a system which provide a single-sign on arch and a central repository which 
contain users repository.

In few words it works as follow:
        * All user-name and password (principals) are maintained in a kerberos
          kdc
        * All information about user (and mail), domains (dns) and hosts are 
          maintained in a LDAP repository. LDAP forward transparently requests
          of binding to kerberos.
        * A web signle sign system (which use kerberos back-end) is working
          using CAS.
        * A front-end for access and modify this data is written as a suite 
                of CORBA (C++) object which run on different servers (mail,
                dns, kdc and so on). This project isn't really complete.
          I plan to release this under GPL.
        
In attach to this email a little extract of ldap. 

Also you can find the CORBA front end here:
        http://www.zucchetti.com/omc.tar.gz

This are only ideas, if you have any comment let me know. Also I'm interested
in developing it with you (and maybe become official gentoo maintiner if
you want).

For any question... I'm here
