  • An audit log feature (in beta mode) that allows to write personalized logging formats using logging classes.
  • A Jitsi Meet Single Sign-On with a specific issuer module.

More information about the changes in this release can be found on the project website.

Everything needed to install and run LemonLDAP::NG is now available in Fedora, EPEL and RHEL9 package repositories.  Furthermore, in the process of packaging the software, all the optional dependencies have been met.

Technical details can be found in the documentation.
