Re: Adding my own ProviderManager (user management)

The LDAP provider is a read-only provider as most 
of the customers do not want Jahia to directly 
manage user and group properties within their 
centralised LDAP repository. So you would need to 
complete the current implementation in order to 
make a read/write provider if this is something you want to do...

Cheers,
Stéphane
