Hi,

as we have a customer who is interested in publishing certificates in an
LDAP directory, I have finally tried out the LDAP publishing workflow.

Some comments:
- I had to add the openca.schemai file, but had to modify it from the latest
  version to only include the objectclasses:
  * opencaUniquelyIdentifiedUser
  * opencaEmailAddress
  * opencaSCEPDevice
  Are those really _needed_ in a normal environment, they sound fairly
  specific to me? I wouldn't want to force the customer to change their
  schema without it actually making sense ...

- What's with the sn=NOT SUBSTITUTED YET, can I turn that off? What's
  the purpose of modifying entries apart from userCertificate anyways?

- The customer wants the certificate DNs to be different from the LDAP
  DNs (which I guess is a fairly typical situation), I don't think this
  is possible with the current code yet, am I correct? If so, I'd try
  adding a workflow activity that tries to map a certificate DN to an
  LDAP DN (for example by extracting the CN, searching for it below a
  certain base DN and then using the found DN as the certificate DN -
  fully configurable, of course) - do you think this makes sense?

Cheers,
  Alex
