Are you sure that you fully understood RFC 2849 before doing this?
Which version of python-ldap are you using?

Module ldif in python-ldap does that for you based on RFC 2849.
Without seeing your code using it I cannot tell what's wrong.

1. The module ldif is stand-alone. So you could easily make it available for
Python 3.
2. "Shame" is the wrong term here. Personally I currently have no requirement
to use Python 3 and I'm quite busy with other things. So contributors are
welcome. But they should be willing to do some serious work giving continous
support - not only a half-baken patch.
Ciao, Michael.
