Quanah, I know that in the past you, Howard and others have contributed pieces of software to other LDAP-enabled software to enable SASL auth.
I had myself some bad experience in contributing things to software maintainers that did not even understand the need or the importance of what I was trying to contribute, but that's another story.
Maybe we could try, as the OpenLDAP project rather than as individuals, to promote and support better LDAP (not just OpenLDAP) integration in other generally useful FLOSS that can interact with OpenLDAP.
I'm ok with spending time on this, but I don't use evolution and have no direct need to get it working. How do we decide which "generally useful FLOSS" should get our attention?
I have a large list :-) just a few examples:
- postfix, enable compare - (X)Emacs, ldapv3 - php-ldap, controls, strong binds - Net::LDAPapi, documentation
