Just for the fun of it..... Where would a person acquire that schooltool.ldap package?? I *may* try and give it a go...... It's looking more and more like schooltool will do almost exactly what we were looking for. >>> Tom Hoffman <[email protected]> 8/19/2010 1:11 PM >>> On Thu, Aug 19, 2010 at 12:20 PM, SCOTT OWEN <[email protected]> wrote: > Thanks for the offer....

Actually, everything is "really" packaged as Python eggs. See, for example: http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/library/l-cppeak3.html#N10232 We then generate debs from these more or less automatically. When you do a "source" installation of SchoolTool, essentially it just uses egg packages to create a sandbox environment for you. But anyhow, it looks like we did make schooltool.ldap packages, so this explanation is probably unnecessary. --Tom _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~schooltool-developers Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~schooltool-developers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
