[Web4lib] LDAP Digital Library

[Walter McGinnis]

Hello Jim,

I'm the Walter that Chris Cormack previously mentioned.  As noted  
before, I've done a lot of work with OpenACS (and it's predecessor,  
ACS) in the past.  It has a core software package called the Content  
Repository which nicely handles versioned content, including  
internationalization.  I just took a brief look at Dublin Core and  
I'm happy to report that most of what one would need for Dublin Core  
is built-in.  However, you might have to do some tinkering to get it  
out in exactly the same terminology, an export to Dublin Core should  
be a relatively easy project with OpenACS's templating system.   
Again, it has built-in LDAP support and sophisticated permissions  
system.  All core packages and most others have a built-in group  
scoping based on a subsite membership model.

There is plenty more to talk about.  Feel free to contact me off list.

Cheers,
Walter McGinnis
