RE: [PEAR-DEV] New Package Proposal: Enterprise A&A

Catching on the thread (my mail client will most likely start a new thread, thanks to microsoft, i use outlook ;( If I understood the thread correctly both packages aim in the same general direction. The approach is a bit a bit different in that Enterprise A&A is designed with web-service in mind whereas live user on provides a general framework with a container approach. I believe (from current level of comprehension of both packages) that liveuser is more flexible in that it does oblige the end-user to use what containers are provided with it but instead provides the means to easily add almost anything he/she has in mind. Like markus wrote having a web service capability and/or single sign on requires the work of writing the containers (which is quite a lot of work I reckon ;). The idea is to keep the same API so the end-user code does not have to change. Web-service containers would also be a great addition to the package, providing a rather complete set of containers is a good thing imho. This said I think there could be a merging of efforts, dividing when we could all work together is not the way to go (tm). I have to look at the a&a code to see how it is designed, maybe my assumptions were wrong, in which case i apologize ;) Keep up the discussion, the process might take a while :) Arnaud.
