I don't think there has been any active development lately, and I don't think it's been because of a conscious deferral for a future with JAAS. I think it's basically not been a high priority because of a lack of demand. > More importantly though, this one is a need for me, so I'm going to > implement it.

This is a great time for you to get involved. Part of the v3 design will be a discussion of user repository interfaces. We're about to start those discussions. An LDAP perspective would be valuable. If your time frame is short, I'd encourage you to implement the current UserRepository interface and check the behavior. We can then morph it along with the other repositories when we do the redesign. > BTW, great piece of software, it's been very helpful. That's why I'm here.
