We use Spring Security 3.0, so you (or whomever takes your contract offer) should be able to modify the security application context to support AD: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7438246/configuring-spring-security-ldap-3-0-to-work-with-active-directory-lds As for the database, we do have configuration documentation regarding how to connect to MySQL: http://incubator.apache.org/rave/documentation/configure-database.html Please let us know the documentation needs work. > >I can set up an eLance.com project to pay someone to help us get Rave >setup in our environment correctly. I've got the start of a perl script >to configure the source and run maven and then another one to deploy the >binary distribution and update the appropriate configurations (change the >Tomcat ports, add the mysql library, etc). > >Priority will go to core contributors to Rave for this contracting work if >you want it (and as thanks for an awesome job of turning three or more >interesting gadget portals into one really nice gadget portal - we were in >the process of building yet another gadget portal which we stopped >immediately when we saw the ApacheCon presentation and Youtube video >demonstrating Rave 0.5 :) Very glad to hear that this.
