Ganymede is a GPL'ed metadirectory system.  Ganymede provides support
for concurrent, team-based management of network directory services.
It features a multithreaded database server with support for plug-in
Java classes to customize the structure, management, and distribution
of network directory data.  Ganymede allows large groups of
administrators to share administrative control over designated
portions of a master network directory database, and provides
transactional reliability and intelligent constraint management to
keep network directories consistent.  Ganymede keeps complete audit
trails for all activity and can send email notification of relevant
directory changes to every member of your admin team, keeping
administrative teams coordinated and effective.  Ganymede's
sophisticated graphical user interface is designed to provide a high
enough level of ease and safety of use to allow even relatively
untrained users to make changes to the directory database.

Ganymede has been designed and implemented over a seven year period to
act as the glue that holds your admin teams and your directory
services together.

This is a maintenance release of the Ganymede directory management
software.  The biggest bug fix pertains to a problem in permissions
handling where an owner group contains other owner groups.  In
addition, the runServer script for Java 1.2 and later has been
modified so that the Ganymede server only runs full-heap garbage
collection once an hour, rather than the once a minute default of the
RMI system.  This will significantly reduce the CPU loading on the
Ganymede server.

We intend this to be the last release of Ganymede under that name, as
the NetIQ corporation maintains a trademark on Ganymede in conjunction
with network management system.

We are working on changing the name of our system, and obtaining an
appropriate trademark.  The next release will have a new name and new
artwork, and will probably require Java 1.3 or better, so that we can
incorporate SSL support for the client-server communications.  We
expect this version to be the last that is supported under JDK 1.1.
