Description: GUM (Group, User Manager)
        -------------------------
        
        GUM allows you to manage user accounts and groups stored in an LDAP server.
        It provides a user-friendly web interface for managing those users and
        groups. It also has a plug-in system to allow Python extensions to be
        called when modifications are made to LDAP entries.
        
        GUM is written in Python using the Grok web framework.
        
        Installation
        ------------
        
        GUM is intended to be installed using Buildout. It requires Python 2.6.
        
        $ python2.6 bootstrap/bootstrap.py
        $ ./bin/buildout
        
        From here you can start a development LDAP server with:
        
        $ ./bin/slapd start
        
        Then start the web server with:
        
        $ ./bin/zopectl start
        
        This will start the server on port 8080.
        
        More likely than not though, you want to install a version to use in
        production. In this case, copy the 'buildout.cfg' file and name it
        'production.cfg'. Then edit this file with production configuration,
        and install it with:
        
        $ ./bin/buildout -c production.cfg
        
        But the buildout config is still a bit murky at the moment, as well
        as the post-installation experience -- if you are trying to install this
        and get stuck, please contact the author by email.
        
        Develop
        -------
        
        To develop GUM you should have an LDAP instance for developing with.
        You must have OpenLDAP pre-installed (currently this works on Mac OS X,
        will need tweaking for other OSes). You must start this instance before
        running the app or functional tests:
        
        $ ./bin/slapd start
        
        If you need to debug LDAP, it can be started in debug mode with:
        
        $ /usr/libexec/slapd -f ./parts/slapd/slapd.conf -d 255 \
        -h ldap://127.0.0.1:1700
        
        Note that the functional tests expect the server to start on port 1700.
