Isn't LDAP a bit of a security hassle? I would think it is pretty common to have Mailman running on a machine along side MySQL, Apache and and MTA of some sort but wouldn't throwing in LDAP be more like requiring people install a CVS daemon to use Mailman? I'm no LDAP guru but from what I have looked at previously it certainly seemed that way.
