Of course. And I, for one, wouldn't want to see ldap in the tree anywhere but experimental until it has several +1's for stability [both in development and by end-users.] If ldap is truly stable [at least as stable as proxy, in spite of the few bite-us bugs that have been reported] then that would be cool. In the development tree? Cool. But not in the stable/GA tree until it is stable/ga, or park it off in experimental. Note I'm not in favor of experimental becoming a dumping ground for those things that just 'don't work'. Experimental is good for those bits complete enough for some user testing, comments and other feedback. Bill
