LDAP seems like a pretty configuration heavy thing to put in to a standlone Mailman system. I’m currently researching to find some sort of minimla/lightweight LDAP integration approach.
IMHO, what we really want (besides a pony, do you raise ponies?) is "enterprise" integration, by which I mean that Mailman doesn't do auth at all, but provides something like OAuth with a bundled lightweight backend that does password auth, and bundled adapters that can connect to social auth (OpenID, Mozilla Persona) or an enterprise's LDAP directory.
Sounds like a great GSoC project to me!!
