Just an off-topic question: Which one is the original LDAP C SDK, MozLDAP or OpenLDAP?
Why MozLDAP is poorly maintained, while OpenLDAP is actively maintained?

As with nearly all open source projects, the reason is community involvement. Most people do not have time to learn about and contribute to more than one LDAP project, so in my opinion it was inevitable that one would become more popular than the other. OpenLDAP also ships with most (nearly all) Linux distributions.

Both LDAP implementations have their roots in the original LDAP implementation that was developed at the University of Michigan in the early to mid 1990s.
