Thank you. : I don't know this tool

I just read the documentation of SakaiAdminX and, yes, it seems to be a good
tool for what we want

I will try it

but a question : we can add participants to the sites we create we AdminX :
can we get participants via our GroupProvider implementation and integrated
with Ldap ?
