So, summarizing:

1) I was reviewing build dependencies after discovering an old pull request for Jackrabbit, complaining on the use of a security challenged version of commons-collections (see https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCR-4080)

2) Asked Manfred to bump up the version of org.apache.directory.api.api-all in auth-ldap, which itself had a dependency on the old version of commons-collections (see https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OAK-5336)

3) Tests passed on our Windows machines, but not on Jenkins. Turns out that tests were disabled on Windows (see https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OAK-2904)

4) Finally fixed tests by also bumping up the test dependency for the directory server implementation.

5) After some digging, found *why* the tests were failing on Windows, fixed that, and re-enabled them (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OAK-5358)

6) We're still referencing a Release Candidate for org.apache.directory.api.api-all, and the API *has* changed in the last 12 months. We need to make sure that once that is released, we update our code (and branches as well). Opened https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OAK-5361 (scheduling it for 1.8) to track this.

Best regards, Julian
