I note that with OpenLDAP, Heimdal, sudo with LDAP support, eash, FreeRADIUS 
and tac_plus I already have everything (and more) in their roadmap targeting 
August 2008, except for "AD Sync" (for which there is a patch, but I 
personally have some requirements I haven't had the time to hack onto it) 
and "Machine policy" (but our company mandates proprietary software to do 
this on all OS platforms anyway).

Right, I don't (yet) have a GUI for all of this (I was working on DNS and DHCP 
maintenance in LDAP last time I had time ...), but I will soon.
