OpenLDAP for OpenSolaris

Thursday, August 7. 2008

In reality the OpenLDAP distribution is moving forward, while the Mozilla distribution has stagnated.

I wonder what other LDAP^[?] projects are in the same state as the Mozilla one?

Almost all other known Linux FOSS based utilities using LDAP,
use OpenLDAP libraries by default. The current maintainers
of the Mozilla LDAP code base are currently expressing no
interest in continuing to enhance Mozilla libldap beyond
existing minimal maintenance efforts. In reality the OpenLDAP
distribution is moving forward, while the Mozilla distribution
has stagnated.

Today, Solaris/OpenSolaris is the only major distribution that
does not deliver the OpenLDAP libldap C APIs. This project
corrects this issue.
