Go for it. If I remember correctly, the existing ldappool feature offer us roughly 30% performance gain. If ldap3 can do the same or better that would be awesomer. I would also love to see some benchmark numbers between ldap3 and SSSD for read-only LDAP.

Subject: [openstack-dev] Keystone, python3 and python-ldap

Heya,

Looking at keystone test requirements and the
https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Python3 is there a plan for python-ldap & ldappool ?

I see some mentions on the mailing list, but not a concrete solution.

It seems to me that both python-ldap & ldappool could be replaced by
ldap3 (previously known as python3-ldap, retro-fitted with python2.6+
support)

https://ldap3.readthedocs.org/en/latest/welcome.html

https://pypi.python.org/pypi/ldap3

It is licensed under LGPLv3, is that ok? Note that currently python-ldap license is quite iffy, and one of the optional deps is BSD-4-Clause which also not nice for everyone.

Is it ok for me to work on transitioning to ldap3?
