I would personally love to see LDAP go into action and offer my services
to help setup and support using Fedora Directory Server. I currently
have Fedora Directory Server working well with plone and have started to
work on getting moinmoin to authenticate to the same user directory.
What other services would need to authenticate to the same user
directory? I also suspect moving accounts from SQL to LDAP should be
fairly easy. I could script it using perl. Also, an SQL backend could be
setup for Fedora Directory Server using plugins.
(http://directory.fedora.redhat.com/wiki/Plugins) A brief google search
turns up no SQL plugins.
