Bernhard, 
the design is absolutely great. I also see LDAP as the central point of 
configuraion in any environment Kolab will be used. But the question is 
moreover:

How easy / difficult is it to extend the web configuration scheme? Imagine, 
somebody wants to attach the user administration of application xy to Kolab. 
Technically he would just need to extend the schema and load it into LDAP. 
But what about the handling in the operational phase? How easy / difficult 
will it be to update a passwd? 

For this reason I am interested to see if the layout of the config web 
interface can be extended by editing any such template like in the apache 
configuration. 

If there is a standard way to do it, attaching third party applications to 
kolab would be childish easy and another reason to use kolab. 

Best wishes,
Markus
