If MSFT does not suck it up and license NDS they have lost their collective borg mind. If they apply the Streetalk bandaid, I mentioned this a month or so ago, then they will have admitted defeat. With that defeat in plain view, why go after an implementation which is lite on the engineer expertise. Streetalk is a good directory, and if it was 2 years ago I would say maybe it made sense for MSFT to bet on Streetalk. The point is that it is now and MSFT would not be able to draw on the well of engineer expertise that NDS provides. How many certified Streetalk engineers exist? Does anyone know? LDAP is LDAP but these directories go way beyond those specs and both have their idiosyncracies. Does anyone else see what I am talking about on this topic?

Maybe I am the one losing it,
