Grouper Users - Open Discussion List

[Michael McManaman <>]

Thanks Shilen!

Can you point me to the documentation on how to set up the psp (?) to 
use the sources.xml for finding subject sources?

I'm a bit fuzzy on how this part of grouper would work, and i'm probably 
missing the docs in the wiki.

Thanks again for your help!

Mike
