Alistair, No problem. It seems it is already merged into the develop branch so you could have a go with that. That leads me to the question: is there anyone maintaining the code currently? There have been some pull requests approved directly to master and some to develop so both versions divert a little. I still have the i18n pull request open. I’m willing to keep contributing to the code but maybe there should be some guidelines as for how to proceed and someone in charge of reviewing code, merging pull-requests and eventually actually releasing the changes… Cheers, Matthias > On 13 Apr 2016, at 19:13, Spark, Alistair <[log in to unmask]> wrote: > > That looks brilliant Matthias - thanks for sharing! > > I’ll give it a go. > > > Thanks > Alistair > > > Alistair Spark BSc - VLE Manager > > +44 1707 666 867 > http://www.rvc.ac.uk/emedia <http://www.rvc.ac.uk/emedia> > > eMedia Unit - Room 11 Clinical Block, > The Royal Veterinary College, > Hawkshead Lane, North Mymms, > Hatfield > AL9 7TA. > > > > > > > > > > >> On 13 Apr 2016, at 13:58, Matthias Crauwels <[log in to unmask] <mailto:[log in to unmask]>> wrote: >> >> I have implemented authenticated LDAP search in our fork (https://github.com/ICTO/WebPA-Source/commit/f74abc6cdaafbe0c51ad1cfb90d87d648d45367b <https://github.com/ICTO/WebPA-Source/commit/f74abc6cdaafbe0c51ad1cfb90d87d648d45367b>) >> If you want can always create a pull request to integrate this in the main repository… >> >> Matthias >> -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- >> Matthias Crauwels [log in to unmask] <mailto:[log in to unmask]> tel:+32 <tel:+32> 9 264 8571 >> Directie ICT, afd.
