Hi,   I need to expose some data stored in a postgres database using OpenLDAP. In the past, I've used back-sql for that purpose and it has worked quite nicely, but that has been a very long time ago.   Now, after digging through the archives a little bit, I read that the usage of the backend is discouraged, because it is unmaintained.   What I basically need is an LDAP based address book, that users can connect to using their macOS based MUAs.   So if we say, that the backend is only used for read-only access, is it still not recommended? And maybe, if the backend happens to be unusable, are there any viable alternatives that come to mind?

If you need it, consider learning enough C programming skills to maintain it, or hire someone to do so.
