I have offered my help but have never gotten access to the ZMI and/or made any progress on expressing Fedora Unity has already learned many lessons about using Plone and what *not* to do. I also have been working to package plone-ldap which would be all that is needed to get Plone 2.5 with PAS authenticating from LDAP. For example, the Fedora Unity sites use Fedora Directory Server and I set that up. The systems are not yet packaged.. but need to be. I offer my help and experience. Jonathan Steffan
