Dave,
As you've quickly discovered, there is nothing out there to do
Java<->LDAP data binding. This was just one of the reasons I began
implementing this in Castor. However, shortly after I began this
effort, it got put on hold for various reasons. But, ironically, I was
just speaking to someone about this very topic last night and we both
agreed that this effort is necessary, and sooner rather than later. So
late last night I was looking at the work I had started on this back
in November. There's still a fair amount to do, but it's definitely
doable. I just need to get to a spot where I can dedicate some time to
it.
