+* Fix all errors/warnings
+* Integrate handy LDAP testing scripts/data
+* Make nginx + Apache2 site configs and make them optional dependencies for the package.

+Work order would be contingent on testing on PLUG's test server + acceptance of pull request.

+Motion passed. (Benjamin has offered to cover the cost of the work order in the event that the motion is later rescinded.)
