Also keep in mind that we have a roadmap, so try to stick to it : a
modification can be tagged as a JIRA fix (we just have to inject some
new JIRA, probably prefixing them with a tag like [bigbang]), making

How about adding a page for the roadmap in Confluence DIRxPMGT space? Or is there already one in place?

The documentation is absolutely necessary, as some of us have a deep
knowledge about the server internals, but this is not a general case.
If we introduce deep modifications without documentation, then
- people who had some knowledge about the server will lose it
- and you won't be able to share your vision, leading to some
potential bad choices.

I will create a version of the Basic User Guide for the new XBean configuration style, if the Big Bang stabilized. This is perhaps more important than the 1.5.1 update, because it will lead to better documentation for 2.0 if released.

Excellent! I may have mentioned before that there is some generated documentation for xbean-spring, see apacheds/apacheds-xbean-spring/ target/xbean/apacheds-xbean-spring.xsd.html and *.wiki. The html looks a bit basic in my browser, and I'm not sure if the .wiki is confluence format. Could you take a look and see if you think this could be made appropriate to include in the documentation? For myself I find it much easier to write and fix little bits of javadoc than to try to write a whole page of description at once so I think I'd have an easier time contributing to generated documentation like this than a whole user manual. It also gets kept up to date with the code changes pretty easily :-)

thanks!

Last, not least, keep in mind we are targetting VSLDAP compliance for this 2.0.

I will move VSLDAP documentation to DIRxPMGT space as well, and will start to create an XBean configuration for running the tests.
