The former.

There is the basis of an LDAP client in inetlib. This was developed  
with the intention of becoming the protocol handler for an LDAP JNDI  
implementation. There isn't any DirContext implementation yet, it  
would be great if someone found the time to do it.

Our only current JNDI implementation is a filesystem-based one which  
is still in the ether somewhere; Mark was going to review it but I  
guess hasn't had the time yet.

I don't know what you're referring to.
