/me curious too :)

I heard the rumor that this code exists before but I did not see it
yet. It is definitely not in CVS. I don't think it will be part of
Kolab-2.2 because switching to openldap-2.4 would be too much for that
version. The underlying OpenPKG is actually already openldap-2.4 only.

But if the code is available under a free license I'd also be very
happy to see it being made available. I believe several of the native
ports could already integrate it and thus test it for problems.

Cheers,

Gunnar
