I've initialized the new repo with tv42's repo. It isn't a github
fork, but a mirror. I also tagged it with the 0.43 release since that
is the last known official release build.

You've done is right and I've already github forked it (after I did
the above) and started to get down to business.

Whenever someone gets the chance, please check this out:
https://github.com/twisted/ldaptor/pull/1

The summary/comment pretty much sums up what we've talked about in the
list so far. I think once it is merged, it is a pretty good starting
place.

This has been tested against our project at Amplidata and with only 3
failing tests out of 337, we're doing really so far.

Going forward, here are some things I want to tackle:
1) Get those remaining 3 tests (or code it tests) fixed.
2) Follow up with Pypi about the semi-dead Ldaptor 0.53 release
3) Start the PEP8 process on the codebase
4) Help existing debian maintainer to transition to twisted's ldaptor
5) ?
... additional input from you guys would be awesome. :)

Cheers,
Bret
