[Zope] membership management

[Ausum Studio]

Full-blown membership management is a to-do feature in current Zope/CMF
releases, maybe due to the many different scenarios at where it would be
required.

Many developers prefer to rely on LDAP users databases, as they already
offer users handling and search features. Use LDAPUserFolder to hook to one
of them, in replace of the current UserFolder. (New ZopeOrg is going to use
this alongside other custom tools).   Also you may want to try
ExtensibleUserFolders (XUF), as they offer UIs to members properties
handling.

Anyway none of the two is a membership management tool, just aids. In both
cases I'm also interested in getting to know some success stories. :)
