Let me put it the other way round: There's a lot of things which *could*
be implemented in OpenOffice.org (for instance, people constantly
require an Outlook equivalent, a project management tool, and a lot of
other applications, and the like).

However, I don't think that attempting to implement each and every
feature which would be "useful" is a good idea. Not as long as not each
and every developer in the world works on OpenOffice.org.

So, as long as we need to prioritize our work, I continue to think LDAP
write access is not what belongs to a database application's core
functionality.

Which doesn't mean we would not accept your (or anybody else's) patch
which implements this :)

Ciao
Frank
