Great,

the member directory is on my list too :-) It is funny how everybody
always has the same needs. That's why OpenSource works soo great. Since
I am just starting on the member and webuser stuff could you send me
some information how you handle the webuser? I was thinking of creating
a backend module that can create and delete webuser and create a
frontend JSP which is handling the login. As fas as I understand should
the rest be able to be managed through the permissions from OpenCMS. Is
that correct?

Thanks for your help on this
