LDAP really needs more love. Almost everything can be integrated with LDAP in some form, yet managing the server and configuration is always a bit tricky.

Currently I'm trying to learn to be more productive with LDIF honestly is much simpler than I thought. It's a great way to do bulk changes and handy in scripts, but it's not a sensible way to do everyday interactions. Right now there aren't many good tools, Apache Directory Studio is rather nice, but feels old fashion and not the kind of tool you'd want people to interact with on a daily basis... Unless they understand a bit about how LDAP works.

It really nice to see a new LDAP project, especially one that more focus on making the protocol more accessible.

For those who need something simple there's also the OpenBSD LDAP daemon, which also works pretty well.
