Just point at one user database.
Actually, it is a lot of work. You have to integrate your login system with MediaWiki, Vanilla Forums, Trac, Bugzilla, Exchange and whatever else we have running. We didn't write any of those systems and they involve several languages and databases. We'd have to write the integrated database stuff for them. If they have plugins to support it we'd be fine (which they may have for openid or whatever) but doing it ourselves is a lot of work. dan ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ enlightenment-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-users
