repoze.pam

[Chris McDonough]

Whoops, I didn't know about Authority before I started this project...

http://svn.repoze.org/repoze.pam/trunk/

This doodad lacks some of the scope of Authority (namely it does not
try to deal with groups, roles, permissions?, user data), but it
shares most of the other goals. It's also meant to be as small as
possible a core, and as plugins to it are needed, they'll get written
and put somewhere else.

FWIW, I am pretty happy with the design of repoze.pam, so it's likely
I'm going to continue its development.

I have also written repoze.decsec which is a stab at providing
middleware that has a shot at handling authorization (as opposed to
authentication) as middleware. See http://www.plope.com/Members/chrism/decsec_revisited
... not sure if anyone here is interested in that.

Just wanted to give a shout out, as we seem to share some reqt's! ;-)

You have some really nice testing in your code. I might borrow some
ideas from there.

Lets get together at pycon and discuss the opportunities for merging
the projects.
