It can export the data in a somehow configurable way directly to an ldap
server (thus keeping it sincronized), but its not the same as the other
one because it is much more complex to fit into a simple hierarchy like
ldap. (Many persons can belong to an ou, many ous can belong to an ou,
ous have as many addresses (locations) as you may like, a person can be
in an ou, but in a prticular location....etc


Im shure that for any test case i can come up with, there is a way to
model it in LDAP, the problem is that we cannot code for only one model
of the data, we need to keep it open so that you guys can fit it where
you want.
