Masoud Kalali recently posted an interesting article about the Open Provisioning ToolKit (OpenPTK), “an open source User Provisioning Toolkit exposing API’s, Web Services, HTML Taglibs, JSR-168 Portlets with user self-service and administration examples.”

Mausoud provides a good overview of the toolkit and then provides specific examples, including sample code, on how to extend OpenPTK. This is an excellent example of how open source collaboration can accelerate innovation.

Thanks to my colleague Scott Fehrman for sharing this article.
