This is v2.0a -- a "beta" release -- it is still way under construction. You will find version 1.5, which may or may not be more up-to-date, HERE. Apologies for any confusion. | Last updated: 16-Feb-1999 |
Back to the main LDAP
Roadmap page v2.0a

IDC will be facilitating all sorts of multi-vendor directory coordination
and events. See their web page for info.
IMC concentrates on Email, but conducted among the first multi-vendor
LDAP interoperability events (dubbed DirConnect). This is a good
site for directory geeks to be aware of because email as a system has a
close relationship with directories.
NAC's mission is to improve the interoperability of its member's
mission-critical applications in their heterogeneous enterprise computing
environments. Directories play a large role in this process, and so NAC
has an interest in their promulgation.
This site features links to free LDAP SDK source code (at Mozilla.org)
and other goodies!
This module is based on the Netscape
LDAP SDK (see above) and includes example working CGI scripts which
implement a web-based directory frontend. His page has lots of other cool
LDAP stuff also.
There's not much info on this web site, but there's a bit more here,
which is the site for his port of UMich LDAP release onto Linux (which
is on the shelf for the time being, according to his page).
This work has yielded an RFC. See here
for its citation.
These pages are particularly valuable-- they provide tutorial and
roadmap guidance on the subject of X.500 itself.
ISODE (pronounced "eye-sode") is a vendor of high-performance X.500/LDAP
servers and associated stuff. Note that ISODE's site no longer provides
the old free version of Quipu, nor is it any longer a mirror site for the
UMich LDAP release.
This ftp
site contains most, if not the complete set, of the International
Telecommunication Union's X.500
specifications. However, they are not the officially-blessed
final versions. For those, you need to pay money to the ITU.
These docs are supposedly the versions of the docs that are submitted to
the ITU for official balloting.
At one time, I had links here to the NADF's page at www.usps.gov/nadf/,
but it has disappeared. Nexor (see above) had some links, but theirs now
also dangle. Please drop me a line if you have info about NADF or pointers
to NADF stuff. Thanks. (31-Mar-97)
