Good Day,

I have been working lately with ApacheDS LDAP server and am very impressed
with its design and extensibility. Since it is written in pure Java, it
makes Java geeks like myself quite happy.

I would love to get it running on FreeBSD but unfortunately, it will not
work without a service framework and therefore will not work on FreeBSD :'(
The ApacheDS team has suggested getting a jsvc port for FreeBSD in order to
port over ApacheDS. See Link to post:
http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/directory-users/200703.mbox/%3ca32f6b020703282254j66efa8d9o2c6bec6a130861d8@mail.gmail.com%3e

Having Commons Daemon would allow ApacheDS and solutions for Enterprise Java
applications to the FreeBSD platform in a way that they are available
already on Linux. At present, my only options are Linux (hmmm...) or Window
(ack!).

Please let me know how I can help get this port rolling again or help to
expand this business case so we can justify getting this important project
rolling again. I would be quite happy to help in being a tester.

Thanks for your time and interest!
TCQ
