Hello, after the recommendation:

Please learn to use "git rebase -i"

I tried to rebase my code once more, with poor results.

So, I deleted my previous fork's repository, forked another one from jech/galene, cloned it and synced it with my modifications.

I hope that the commit history is simplified enough to be readable.

The current plan is to use an external authorisation server for this kind of database access. Please see https://lists.galene.org/galene/87tugzwezl.wl-jch@irif.fr/ CC @erdnaxe

Thanks to you for making me realise that we need a good way to integrate with existing auth infrastructure without implementing hundreds of protocols within Galene.

It would be really good if you and @erdnaxe can get together and work on an LDAP authentication server for Galène. I'll be glad to help, whether you decide to do it in Python or in Go.

The advantage of Python is that it's familiar to most sysadmins, so people will feel comfortable adapting the code to their needs. The advantage of Go is that it's strongly typed, and that it doesn't require hundreds of libraries on the server. It's up to you.
