I think this would be a great interface, but unfortunately, I do not know nearly enough about LDAP to be able to presume what an OO api for this type of service should look like..

Would anyone out there be interested in creating Zend_Ldap?

Does anyone (other than me) have a need for LDAP support within ZF? If so, what form would that take? Has anyone done any work on this so far?

Is there a better place to discuss this than fw-general?
I understand that some work is being done in the Zend_Auth component for LDAP support.
It'd be best to discuss this component on [EMAIL PROTECTED]

But LDAP can do more than just auth. A interface similar to SimpleXML could be useful. I.e.:

<?php

$ldap = new Zend_Ldap('localhost');

foreach($ldap['o=My Company']['c=US']->filter('(|(sn=S*)(givenname=S*))') as $entry) {
    echo $entry->givenname . "\n";
}

?>

Maybe it could also be made without depending on the LDAP module, which is not enabled by default.
