If you had submitted modifications back to the Project that might have 
told us there was interest in maintaining slurpd. As it is, nobody on 
the Project has any interest, so you would still have been maintaining 
it yourself. The way forward here is to write an overlay that handles 
any necessary adaptations for ActiveDirectory. You just have to map 
entryUUID to objectGUID and map the entryCSNs.
