[Twisted-Python] Ldaptor status and updates
I want to use the Ldaptor LDAP client for a project. Does anybody know whether and how Ldaptor is currently maintained and what the best upstream source is? I need to make some changes and wonder what to base the work on and where to discuss and publish changes. Is it OK to discuss Ldaptor on this list and to send patches here? The first google hit for ldaptor is http://webmail.inoi.fi/open/trac/ldaptor but the SVN repo on that site has last commit Sun May 7 2006. I found a git repo with newer commits at http://eagain.net/gitweb/?p=ldaptor.git, last commit Sat Aug 23 2008. I published some work-in-progress changes based on the git repo above at http://github.com/antong/ldaptor Best regards Anton

Hello, I do the primary work on the ldaptor Debian package these days. Tommy did not release a new version for years but has the mentioned git repository. The Debian svn repository at svn://svn.debian.org/python-modules/packages/ldaptor/trunk/ contains a series of patches in the debian/patches directory to fix some minor issues with ldaptor.

I can not speak for the list but I'd like to get patches to incorporate them in the Debian package.
I'll have a look at your changes later this week. @Tommy: are you still interested to be the primary upstream for ldaptor or would you like Anton or me to provide a new upstream project? What do you think of the idea to merge fixes from github into your git repository and creating future releases?

Thanks! I took a quick look at the patches and it looks like some of these patches are already incorporated in the git repository. Perhaps we could incorporate the rest and upgrade the debian package to a newer version based on the git repo to reduce patches? In debian/changelog in the git repo there is a version 0.0.44 and there are changes also after that.
I'll have a look at your changes later this week.
Thanks. Note that there is a 'master' branch with a couple of fairly trivial changes and then a 'pu' (proposed updates) branch with an additional change I'm not sure about and that I just posted to this list. I'm mostly interested in the Twisted library part of Ldaptor and less in the web UI and command line tools. Best regards Anton
