The LDAP is more or less non-existant according to my programmer. We've 
been working on it, and have a good start with it, using the turbine 
tools, and other stuff (I don't have all the details). We would be 
willing to commit what we have. I believe though, what needs to happen, 
is a more thorough approach, with common components which might work on 
any apache product, such as "snap", or "jakarta-snap", part of the 
Commons collection?
