I don't have the spare time to look more closely at it not to speak of really contributing to it. So just a few general hints: 1. You're not the first one implementing such a module on top of python-ldap. You might want to dig the mailing list's archive to find others. 2. Most implementations of higher-level APIs fall short with mapping attribute type descriptors (OIDs or NAME) to Python class attribute names since they ignore the fact that there are sub-types defined in LDAP (;binary and language sub-types such as ;de-DE). Also there does not have to be a NAME in an attribute type description. So raw OIDs might be returned in a LDAP search result. 3. No implementation is dealing correctly with attribute type descriptor aliasing with OIDs and several values for NAME. You might want to look at ldap.schema.models.Entry to get an idea.
