For a little more commentary...  :^)

This is a place where we can *really* make some innovations.  Chris
showed me the rather lisp-ish syntax known as LDAP Search Filters --
basically you type 23 open parentheses, some search terms and then 23
closing parens.  :^) .  For those of you familiar with the totally cool
<!--#sqlgroup --> and <!--#sqltest --> tags there seems to be an
interesting correlation between dynamic SQL commands and dynamic LDAP
Search Filters (i.e., dynamic LDAP queries).

IMHO, time will produce more and more directory- enabled/based
applications and a good well-thought implementation of ZLDAP Objects
will help a lot.

Thanks for everyone for your comments and suggestions -- keep 'em
coming!!!!
