[ANNOUNCE] ApacheDS 2.0.0-M17 released

[Emmanuel Lecharny <el...@apache.org>]

The Apache Directory team is pleased to announce the release of ApacheDS
2.0.0-M17, the seventeenth milestone towards a 2.0 version.

ApacheDS is an extensible and embeddable directory server entirely written
in Java, which has been certified LDAPv3 compatible by the Open Group.
Besides LDAP it supports Kerberos 5 and the Change Password Protocol. It
has been designed to introduce triggers, stored procedures, queues and
views to the world of LDAP which has lacked these rich constructs.
