  Don't connect to the LDAP server until your application starts up.  This
may be best done in a Factory's startFactory() method or a Service's
startService method, or hackfully in one of your object's __setstate__
methods.

  mktap is writing a configuration file to disk, not actually running your
app.  So you don't want to set up any runtime stuff, like network
connections, in updateApplication().

A disciple of another sect once came to Drescher as he was eating his
morning meal. "I would like to give you this personality test," said the
outsider, "because I want you to be happy." Drescher took the paper that was
offered him and put it into the toaster: "I wish the toaster to be happy, 
too."
