Hello fellow Twistrons,
A long time ago, for reasons we need not discuss here, the pure-python LDAP
implementation within Twisted was pulled out into a separate package under a
different license.
Recently however, the authors of this LDAP code have generously re-licensed the
code under a Twisted-compatible MIT license, both the original code at
<https://github.com/tv42/ldaptor/commit/7e249b1586789a5c588f662ce74ee9f4338666e0>
and the more recent fork (which I believe has more users) at
<https://github.com/antong/ldaptor/issues/10>. It seems as though there's even
a solution for the problematic MD4 implementation here
<https://github.com/tv42/ldaptor/pull/2>.
Since there's no active, central hub for ldaptor development, I think we should
pull it into the Twisted org on Github, and some of the folks on the Cc: line
have volunteered to help with that.
Does that sound good to everybody? (Are you excited!!!?)
It's also a possibility that we could distribute a for-real SSO back-end with
Cred using this, which I'm pretty excited about.
