Greetings,
This is an initial announcement of SCuMD, a pure java git sshd
daemon. The source is at git://github.com/gaffo/scumd. The impetus
behind SCuMD is to provide a highly configurable git daemon which can
authenticate and authorize off of flat files, databases, LDAP, web
services, or any other resource you can think of. SCuMD's other goal is
to remove the need to serve off of normal sshd which some find to be a
security risk on the open Internet. Currently SCuMD supports LDAP as the
authentication module but coding other modules is quite simple.
I would welcome any feedback including a better name. SCuMD stands
for SCM Daemon.
Thanks,
Mike Gaffney

Could you add information about this tool to Git Wiki:
http://git.or.cz/gitwiki/InterfacesFrontendsAndTools
perhaps below entry for gitosis?
TIA

I just wonder: how is your creation less of security risk than sshd?
