They are moving to cerberum [1].

I'm interested in this discussion, as said to Enrico out of this list,
and many of times on d-custom :):
It's really important to identify a good backend to be used by cdd-common
scripts, to easy up CDDs work related to user/groups handling.
It's a needing transversal to all CDDs.

I agree to LDAP, and do not know cerebrum, but if the latter can be
managed via commandline (wrappable by scripts), it might be OK.

cheers,
