Hi,

I modified the announcement again.  I'll post this to
TheServerSide.com now because it looks great finally. :)

--------BEGIN --------
Apache Directory team is pleased to announce the release of ApacheDS
0.8, a pure-Java LDAP server.

Our primary vision is to build an enterprise directory server platform
and its components where other Internet services snap in to store
their data within the directory so they may be managed using LDAP. 
Those services include LDAP itself, DNS, DHCP, SLP, UDDI, NTP, and
most importantly Kerberos, which can integrate with the services to
provide full-featured network authentication service.

Features:

* Designed as an LDAP and X.500 experimentation platform.
* The server exposes all aspects of administration via a special system backend.
* Both the backend subsystem and the frontend are separable and
independently embeddable.
* Provides a server side JNDI LDAP provider which directly interacts
with the backend storage.
* Powered by Staged Event Driven Architecture (SEDA) which can handle
large amounts of concurrency.

Coming soon:
* Remote management via JMX.
* Java-based triggers and stored procedures.

The Apache Directory team is looking for developers and users to work
with the server and give feedback.  Mailing list information is at:
http://incubator.apache.org/directory/mailing-lists.html

Please note that the Directory Project is an effort undergoing
incubation at the Apache Software Foundation (ASF).  While incubation
status is not necessarily a reflection of the completeness or
stability of the code, it does indicate that the project has yet to be
fully endorsed by the ASF.

The Apache Software Foundation provides organizational, legal, and
financial support for a broad range of open source software projects. 
The Foundation provides an established framework for intellectual
property and financial contributions that simultaneously limits
contributors potential legal exposure. Through a collaborative and
meritocratic development process, Apache projects deliver
enterprise-grade, freely available software products that attract
large communities of users.
-------- END --------

Cheers,
