It appears that there is enough consensus to warrant moving
AUTH_LDAP into /experimental.  I am planning on making the move by the
end of the day (8/30).  I am planning on flattening out the directory
structure and putting all of the source for both mod_auth_ldap and
util_ldap into /experimental similar to how the source is stored for the
mod_xxx_cache modules.  This will probably mess up the makefiles for
now.  I will fix the NetWare makefile but others will have to do the
same for their platforms.  One question I had was what to do with the
docs and the sample .conf files.  Is it appropriate to place the docs
for an experimental module in /docs/manual/mod and the sample .conf in
/docs/conf or is there someplace else I should put them?  Ideas,
thoughts?
