Hello everyone,

MediaWiki Stakeholders have been working on a new LDAP stack to connect 
MediaWiki with LDAP based user directories. We have made considerable progress 
over the last months and the stack has been tested successfully in various 
contexts. The new stack is meant to replace the existing 
Extension:Ldap_Authentication which is no longer maintained. It integrates with 
AuthManager and is built in a modular and extensible way. There is also a 
documentation on MediaWiki.org [1] for how to use the new stack and how to 
migrate from the old extension.

In order to harden the stack against a range of use cases, we appreciate your 
testing and feedback. You can also contribute to the code directly, of course.

Best,
Markus
