Do we care about backporting the overhaul into the 2.0 tree? I
don't see that it really buys us anything unless you think that it is
necessary in order to get auth_ldap out of experimental. After I get
the latest util-ldap fixes backported, that should get mod_auth_ldap
working in 2.0. Once it actually works, I think we can then propose
that it is moved out of experimental.
In theory it doesn't really buy us anything no - it depends on how strongly people feel about the fooness in the LDAP code being removed from APR v0.9.4, but as to my knowledge there has never been an ASF blessed release of the 0.9 branch of APR, so in theory there would be no point.
The next thing that needs to be done would be to rework mod_auth_ldap so that it complies with the rest of the 2.1 auth module structure. The util-ldap overhaul could be considered part of that work and only be available in 2.1. Thoughts?
That definitely is next - as mod_auth_ldap is currently non functional in v2.1 due to it not following the authn/authz convention.
