Hi Devs,

Along with Google Summer of Code 2016, we initiated this project [1] for
supporting MongoDB as a secondary userstore for WSO2 products.

Asantha (CC'ed) here successfully completed the project where it supported
IS 5.1.0. (for IS 5.2.0 we need to do some minor modification to get it to
working and for IS 5.3.0 which is about to be released.. we'll have to do
some more changes because the claim management API is changed).

We cannot ship this with a WSO2 product, because it is not scalable. The
end user might use a different version of MongoDB database or JDBC driver,
releasing patches would be difficult if any bug is found etc.

Therefore the best way is to develop it as a connector (extension) and
publicly release to WSO2 store.

For that, I am initiating this email where we can discuss on how to proceed
with this.

@Kathees - I hope you can take the ownership of this. We can get Asantha's
help as well whenever necessary.

My idea is to have a meeting for this during the last week of January
(30,31) and come up with a plan.
