Vudo: Light-weight, innovative content management on Zope 3

The Vudo project is a content management framework written for Zope 3. It is a bit of a playground for rethinking the fundamentals concepts of content management and in particular content publishing. We're trying to keep things simple, to the point and focus on the user experience. From the beginning we've also put a lot of weight on high performance and good scalability.

Lead: Malthe Borch <mborch@gmail.com> (#vudo on freenode, http://groups.google.com/group/vudo,  http://launchpad.net/vudo)

• Session management / authentication (plone.session, plone.openid), WSGI middle-ware
  
• User management
• User interface development
  
• Example project: "A personal blog"
  

LDAP PAS Connector

The purpose is to get a clear LDAP connector for PAS, with the same features than LDAPUserFolder, but:

• have the ability to use the LDAP connection in a clean way in custom Zope/Plone application; there exists a nice python egg for ldap communication, missing in there is fallback server handling, bda.ldap
  
• to support pool of server with load balancing;
• more simple to configure;
  
• be directly a layer of PAS.
