[keycloak-dev] Packaging of ApacheDS for examples?

[Marek Posolda]

Thanks, I will investigate (c) then .

It's more work than (a), which is no work

Well, it won't be that hard to do, just afraid of all the dependencies 
required for ApacheDS . Which might cause that size of keycloak-examples 
will grow to be very big (in that case we may need separate example 
package with embedded ApacheDS LDAP/Kerberos to download). I will 
investigate sizes etc and will send update.
