I don't have a specific source or plan, I'm just trying to get a clear image 
of what Grouper can do and what it's limitations are... it's not that I want 
or need caching, I just wanted to be prepared if it was cached. To make 
things 
more clear: I'm writing a "Technology Scouting" document for SURFnet 
(Netherlands) to see if global group management in general and Grouper in 
specific could earn a place in their service plan.

So, without any customization, out of the box, subject attributes could be 
collected real-time and returned to the client at request from an LDAP source 
e.g. so to speak? I'm trying to find the (thin) line where configuration ends 
and hard-core customization (coding) starts and this is one of the things 
that 
came to my mind when thinking of applications.

Thx for all your patient answers.

Regards,
Martin
