Feasibility Study
There have been requests for an LDAP compatible Contacts address book, which was started by lsces. I've provided an overview of LDAPCompatibility here.Analysis and Specifications - due 17 July 2005
Requirements for v1.0 are:- Data model compatibility with LDAP ie single contact can have unlimited multiple attributes.
- Optional auto-update to/from LDAP server (synchronised SQL table storage)
- Optional direct LDAP communications (minimal SQL table storage)
- If feasible, sub-class LibertyStorage to allow LDAP as a minimal storage mechanism. lsces has suggested storing contact information in XML format, in the LibertyContent data field.
- LibertyPackage compliant where possible
- Provide plugins for LibertyContent to access LDAP and/or Contact records
