I agree.  There are a lot of ongoing issues that need to be discussed
and would benefit from having this community.

Topics I can think of include functionality improvements in LDAP,
that would lead to it's wider acceptance, migration strategies to move
off NIS+ or NIS, and the improvements that are needed to aid in
migration from these legacy naming services.

I think this community would also be a great place to discuss the
interoperability issues that result from integrating multi-platform
naming environments (Active Directory, Solaris/Linux) and things
that can be done to improve these efforts.

Finally I think a naming services community would be a good open
forum to discuss the design of new interfaces that have been missing
from the Solaris/Unix/Linux toolset for far too long.  Interfaces such as
putXbyY APIs.

Doug.
