I just created this page

Where i uploaded my source code package.

I written the plugin by my self ignoring that there is something similar.

Last month.. We have choose it for our internal portal.

In terms of coding.. it was not simple.
Before start to write the plugin i needed to extended the authentication 
subsystem to support "Single Sing On" with our SUN Portal Server (It 
uses AM Server as Identity Manager)

The SSO takes me about 2 weeks, the plugin was ready in about 3/4 work days.

When I developed the plugin i found the documentation very useful.
The core development instead was so hard. Anyway, the architecture of 
xwiki code helps me a lot.

I'm a SysAdmin and a Programmer. My background is focused on Unix/Linux 
systems where i learned to code bash scripts, C programsm, Java 
programs, and perform system administration tasks.
