Re: New Package Proposal: Enterprise A&A

Are you looking to develop an application or a PEAR package? That sounds like a piece that would fit in perfectly into a project I am currently working on called Mangler. It's set to be more of an ISP services management system with a 'single sign-on' component. If you're interested: http://mangler.org Any further discussion on this list would be off-topic. Subscribe to the Mangler-DEV mailing list for more discussion. eric On Tue, 14 Jan 2003, Tony Bibbs wrote: > I have a package still in alpha but has most of the key components > working.
