[Registry-dev] Authentication and Authorization implementation

[Chathura C. Ekanayake]

I have started to implement the search stuff. I will try to get this 
working before Monday.

The biggest problem with setting up the Registry is configuring the UM 
database. It is not something wrong with UM. But it would have been 
easier to get it running if has built in support for an in-memory 
database. I have discussed this in the commons dev list. But till they 
implement it, I will make the UM start with an in-memory HSQL database 
for the Registry. It would solve most of the problems.

I will try to work with Jonathan to get the Registry running in the week 
end.

Thanks,
Chathura
