I am of the same opinion as Justin in that I believe that multiple auth providers can be put into 2.2 at anytime. If it happens to make it before initial release fine. If it is after, it is just additional functionality which won't break backward compatibility. As far as backporting other authnz_ldap patches, Josh's patch is minor and can be easily done. Other's may take a lot more work and the problem that we have right now is that there are very few of us that are looking at auth_ldap and even fewer that are reviewing backports and voting. So getting the required 3-votes doesn't happen very fast if at all. Also, if we can get 2.2 moving and out soon, backports won't matter anyway.
