I was not offended Stefan. We’re just a couple of old timers, swapping
stories. :-)
The code doesn’t lie. It is what it is.

Studio’s a big program. It would be a huge effort to convert to the ldap API.
Not sure it would be worth that effort. Working code wins. Perhaps one day,
someone will volunteer. Would be a great learning project.
On Fortress, we need to get on the LDAP API 2.x branch. Even that relatively
small task has been in the backlog for over a year.
No apologies, only opportunities.
