That is in fact my linked WIP branch, and I can confirm progress was stalled 
just to other priorities being set!
It got to the point (in draft form) where authentication was working, but still 
need to work on extending IRoleManager.

I will say this, while I initially started using the Apache LDAP API, which is 
what’s present in that linked branch, I then started playing with UnboundID and 
Ldaptive (you can find that sandbox here: 
https://github.com/lqid/ldap-sandbox), which I found much easier to work with.

Having said all that, I believe DataStax are in fact using the Apache LDAP API, 
so clearly it is robust enough…
I’d love to start this back up to be honest, but business has priorities some 
very different things.
However, this has been a good reminder that I should finish what I started, so 
thanks for that! ;)

Feel free to reach out if you have any questions for me!

Kindest regards,
Daniel
