17462: ETHREEOH-3346: New meaning to synchronization.synchronizeChangesOnly property
      - In the LDAP sync performance optimizations we always used the differential queries to determine the users and groups to be updated. Deletions were determined by a separate query.
      - This meant that if you ever did want to force the update of all users it wasn't possible.
      - So now when the flag is false it means don't use differential queries in the scheduled sync job.
      - The scheduled job now processes deletions regardless.
      - The default value for the property is now true.
   17431: ETHREEOH-3274: Refix NTLM support for share
      - Fixed NPE introduced by ETHREEOH-2767
      - Made web.xml validate against schema for JBoss
      - Reintroduced missing open comment in webscript-framework-config-custom.xml.sample
   17426: ETHREEOH-2997: Fix ticket parameter passing into NTLM/Kerberos WebDAV authentication filters
      - A NPE was stopping it from working
   17425: ETHREEOH-3282: Fixed NPE preventing upload from working with NTLM SSO enabled
   17368: ETHREEOH-3197: Use utf8_bin collation in MySQL out of the box to avoid problems with comparison of accented characters
   17361: ETHREEOH-3276: Don't attempt to start an LDAP sync when the repository is read only
   17347: ETHREEOH-3206: Fix LocalFeedTaskProcessor to work with JBoss 5

16662: LDAP sync: improved group association filtering, referential integrity checking, deletion strategy and performance tuning of batch sizes
   16648: ETHREEOH-2752: Improved ticket validation fix
      - Invalidate user's tickets during person deletion rather than validation or it can mess up chained validation
   16647: ETHREEOH-2534: Fixed Sharepoint NTLM authentication
      - user details were never getting cached in the session
   16579: Small improvement to LDAP error reporting
      - Committed errors counted before successes in a logging interval
   16515: LDAP sync performance
      - Improved full sync strategy - run differential queries to work out required updates/additions and full queries to work out required deletions. Saves updating unchanged nodes.
      - Use a TreeSet rather than a HashSet to gather group associations in an attempt to avoid blowing the heap size
   16498: More LDAP performance improvements
      - Uses thread pool with 4 worker threads and blocking queue to process returned results. The number of worker threads can be controlled by the synchronization.workerThreads property.
      - Switched LDAP connection pooling back on again
      - Group Associations processsed individually so that errors are collated and we get a better idea of their throughput
      - Fixed potential bug. Group membership resolution done with isolated LDAP context to avoid cookies from paging creeping in.
   16424: Try switching off LDAP connection pooling to see if it works better with our flaky server.
   16414: Further LDAP fault tolerance
      - Log causes of group member resolution failures where possible
   16413: More fault tolerance for LDAP sync
      - Always commit last sync times before overall sync is complete to avoid the 'forgetting' of differential sync information
      - DN comparisons should be case insensitive to avoid issues resolving DNs to user and group IDs
   16398: Improved monitoring and fault tolerance for LDAP sync
      - When the batch is complete a summary of the number of errors and the last error stack trace will be logged at ERROR level
      - Each individual error is logged at WARN level and progress information (including % complete) is collated and logged at INFO level after a configurable interval
      - In the Enterprise Edition all metrics can be monitored in real time through JMX
      - Sanity testing to be performed by Mike!
   16319: Merged HEAD to V3.2
      16316: ALFCOM-3397: JBoss 5 compatibility fix
         - Relative paths used by LDAP subsystem configuration weren't being resolved correctly
         - See also https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBAS-6548 and https://jira.springsource.org/browse/SPR-5120
   16272: ETHREEOH-2752: Once more with feeling!
   16261: ETHREEOH-2752: Correct exception propagation.
   16260: ETHREEOH-2752: Fix ticket validation
      - Current ticket was getting forgotten by previous fix
      - Person validation in CHECK mode now done AFTER the current user is set, so that the current ticket is remembered
   16243: ETHREEOH-2752: Improve ticket validation used by all authentication filters
      - Now takes into account whether person actually exists or not
      - Tickets for non-nonexistent persons are now considered invalid and cached session information is invalidated
      - New BaseAuthenticationFilter superclass for all authentication filters
      - Improved fix to ETHREEOH-2839: WebDAV user is cached consistently using a different session attribute from the Web Client
   16233: ETHREEOH-2754: Correction to previous checkin.
      - relogin for SSO authentication, logout for normal login page
      - logout is default
   16232: ETHREEOH-2754: Log Out Action outcome passed as a parameter
      - relogin for SSO authentication, login for normal login page
      - Means the log out link always leads to the correct place, even when the session has expired
      - Also lowered ticket validation error logging to DEBUG level to avoid unnecessary noise in the logs from expired sessions
   16220: ETHREEOH-2839: Fixed potential ClassCastExceptions when Alfresco accessed via WebDAV and Web Client links in same browser
      - WebDAV side no longer directly casts session user to a WebDAVUser
      - ContextListener no longer casts session user to web client user
      - Web client side will 'promote' session user to a web client User if necessary via AuthenticationHelper
      - All authentication filters made to use appropriate AuthenticationHelper methods
   16211: ETHREEOH-2835: LDAP sync batches user and group deletions as well as creations
      - Also improved logging of sync failures
   16197: ETHREEOH-2782: LDAP subsystems now support search-based user DN resolution
      - When ldap.authentication.userNameFormat isn't set (now the default) converts a user ID to a DN by running ldap.synchronization.personQuery with an extra condition tacked on the end to find the user by ID
      - Structured directories and authentication by attributes not in the DN such as email address now supported
   16189: ALFCOM-3283: Prevent errors when user accepts an invite when not logged in
      - new isGuest attribute propagated to user object
      - header component (used by accept-invite page) needs to avoid calling prefs and site webscripts for guest user
      - Conditional stuff in header template changed to use user.isGuest

15388: ETHREEOH-1872: Better debug logging in authentication components
      - Now each authentication component logs every step of the authentication process (including reason for failure) if you switch on debug logging for that component or the entire org.alfresco.repo.security.authentication package. E.g.
      log4j.logger.org.alfresco.repo.security.authentication.ldap.LDAPAuthenticationComponentImpl=debug
      log4j.logger.org.alfresco.repo.security.authentication.AuthenticationComponentImpl=debug
      log4j.logger.org.alfresco.repo.security.authentication=debug
   15196: Further LDAP sync performance improvements
      - Bunch user and group creations into small transactions (except for differential sync on login)
      - Run a differential sync on startup (so that bulk of users are not brought over on first login)
      - Can be disabled by synchronization.syncOnStartup property
   15135: Node creation / ACL performance improvements
      - When an ACL was set on a leaf node such as a person, redundant 'shared' ACLs were created for child nodes with getInheritedAccessControlList(), even though no child nodes existed.
      - Now setInheritanceForChildren() makes a 'lazy' call to getInheritedAccessControlList(), only when it realises there are child nodes
   15133: Changes to datasource definition for improved performance
      - Enable caching and reuse of prepared statements (by default 40 for each connection)
      - Removed custom-connection-pool-context.xml.sample and instead introduced complete property set into repository.properties
      - Updated v3.2 Wiki docs http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Database_Configuration#Overriding_the_Database_Connection_Properties

68f87e6c05 Two new editable properties supported by Synchronization Subsystem
- synchronization.syncWhenMissingPeopleLogIn
- synchronization.autoCreatePeopleOnLogin
When both are false you can now cause users who your LDAP sync doesn't bring in to be rejected (seems to be a requirement)

d5e0432589 Merged BRANCHES/DEV/DAVEW/LDAP to HEAD
14587: Added new node service method getNodesWithoutParentAssocsOfType to public-services-security-context.xml (or at least my best guess at it!)
   14586: Use US spelling of synchronization in filenames for consistency
   14585: Lower the default user registry sync frequency to daily instead of hourly. Now users and groups are pulled over incrementally on login of missing users.
   14583: Unit test for ChainingUserRegistrySynchronizer
   14571: Migration patch for existing authorities previously held in users store
      - Uses AuthorityService to recreate authorities in spaces store with new structure
   14555: Authority service changes for LDAP sync improvements
      - Moved sys:authorities container to spaces store
      - All authorities now stored directly under sys:authorities
      - Authorities can now be looked up directly by node service
      - Secondary child associations used to model group relationships
      - 'Root' groups for UI navigation determined dynamically by node service query
      - cm:member association used to relate both authority containers and persons to other authorities
      - New cm:inZone association relates persons and authority containers to synchronization 'zones' stored under sys:zones
      - Look up of authority zone and all authorities in a zone to enable multi-zone LDAP sync
   14524: Dev branch for finishing LDAP zones and upgrade impact
