+<PRE>Further to the discussion about gitorious setup and integration with ldap:
+
+First there is a need for a git setup, as at this moment there are two
+projects using git (mageia-app-db, mageia-maintainers-db).
+
+In order to be able to use git, we can either host the projects
+externally, or install git in the mageia servers and host the projects
+there.
+At the moment both projects are hosted externally, but when the mageia
+servers have a git installation they can be transferred there.
+
+For installing git on the mageia servers, we can either install plain
+git or an application like gitorious, as suggested in the list
+previously.
+
+The first option about the plain git installation should be straight
+forward and as simple as: urpmi git-core. Some more information about
+transferring or creating git repositories from one server to another
+can be found here: [1][2]
+
+For the gitorious setup as it is a Ruby on Rails application there are
+some requirements to be able to install it.
+A blog post with full details can be found here: [3]
+During the installation of gitorious there are two options:
+Either install the application from source code or from the available rpm [4].
+Before this stage though a few dependencies and requirements would
+need to be installed.
+Most of them are also relevant to the mageia-maintenainers-db.
+
+NOTE: As mentioned before, I'm available to help on this stage, as
+I've done similar installations before.
+
+Finally, about the integration with ldap.
+After a quick search, it seems that is possible and there are people
+out there that have done that.
+There are probably two different ways of achieving this.
+First one seems to be through Apache and mod_ldap and smart http ([5][6])
+Second one seem to be through PAM authentication ([6][7])
+
+So, at this stage and without going into the actual installation
+details, it seems that is possible to use git/gitorious and ldap.
