Hi all,
I'm currently investigating wheter jetspeed is suitable for an planned 
portal-installation but sadly it does not meet our expectations 
regarding LDAP-integration. For example jetspeed requires read-ability 
on the user-passwords and does not integrate easily with existing 
LDAP-resources (and that's exactly the reason anyone might consider 
using LDAP in the first place...).

There are people using J1 LDAP, but I agree integration could be a lot 
easier

Well, I might be able to invest some time to improve LDAP-support in 
jetspeed, but I definitly need some information like wheter other 
people are actively working in that area (both regarding jetspeed-1 
and jetspeed-2) and how LDAP-integration is planned for jetspeed-2 (it 
is mentioned as a feature).

I'd greatly appreciate any responses.

No one is currently working on LDAP support in J2.
I suggest starting by reviewing the current J2 security implementation, 
which is based on JAAS, and see if you can find a good integration 
point for LDAP with our current design
