Grouper Developers Forum

[Chris Hyzer <>]

I did a simple web services prototype.  The details are here:

https://wiki.internet2.edu/confluence/display/GrouperWG/WS+-+Proof+of+Concept+2007-10-2007

The original Grouper web services page is here, with updated issues and items 
at bottom.
https://wiki.internet2.edu/confluence/display/GrouperWG/Grouper+-+Web+Services

Please give me any feedback.  I will continue to work on it.  Hopefully we 
can discuss it at the next dev call.

Gary, thanks for the head's up.  At this point I will just call the same 
methods that the UI calls, so if we fix the UI with the proper Subject API, 
the web services will probably be fixed also.  But lets discuss this task a 
the next call to make sure the order of operations is optimal.

Kind regards,
Chris
