March 2009:

The ldap plugin has been ported to openldap-2.4 and opensync-0.39 (r5291).
The plugin has been splitted up in the actual ldap-sync plugin
and the ldap-format plugin.

All 4 object types can be synchronized.

The mapping from

xmlformat-contact,
xmlformat-event,
xmlformat-todo,
xmlformat-note

to

ldap-evolutionperson or ldap-inetorgperson,
ldap-event,
ldap-todo,
ldap-note

and vice versa is NOT loss-free and by far not bug-free, yet.

The mapping is performed in two steps:

1. From xmlformat-contact, for example, to some ldap-plugin
   internal XML format.

2. From this internal XML format to C structs suitable for libldap.

And vice versa.

Some fields are not mapped, at all.

Some other fields are mapped to some subentry of objectClass 
"organizationalUnit" instead of being mapped to objectClass 
"evolutionperson".  This is a workaround for the problem that
the formats used by libopensync are not really compatible
to the various LDAP schemes generally used.

There is still no support for XML elements that occur MORE than
one time, like two or three addresses.

And there is no real support for deeper XML element levels, either,
as it can be found in the "<Address>"-element.

For other changes see ChangeLog.
