That's EXACTLY right. You can't say whether LDAP is better or worse in
every scenario. And therefore you should not be proposing to remove
it.

You know, I said in my previous email that you were so sure that you
were right that there was no point in trying to have a serious
discussion, and I can't really see how you could have proved that
point more thoroughly than you did here. You twisted my words around
to make it seem like I was agreeing with your point when you know full
well that I was doing the exact opposite of that.

Please don't do that.
