This is really good news! Thanks to you, David.

I have downloaded the current Geronimo 2.0 milestone (M6) and was able 
to browse to the plugin entry for ApacheDS 1.0

Please note that the URL used in the description
     http://directory.apache.org/subprojects/apacheds/index.html
does not work any longer. Is it possible to change it to
     http://directory.apache.org/
which will likely be stable for a long time?

I must confess that I have not informed myself about the plugin features 
of G. The installation with M6 does not work, because all plugins say 
("(Not available; View Details)"). Does this mean I have to build the 
trunk of G, as you have pointed out?

Thanks in advance,
