ETA for XWiki 1.1, JIRA 1079 - LDAP?

We're deploying XWiki 1.0 at work for internal use. We've set up the LDAP integration to point to our Active Directory, but the existing integration isn't as tight as we'd like. Authentication is handled, but users must be explicitly created in XWiki, along with their details and group membership management coming from XWiki. I saw bug 1079 in JIRA addresses this. I think I saw this being included in XWiki 1.1 milestone 2: http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-1079 Is there a project timeline for XWiki? In lieu of that, has anyone tried the code attached to 1079 in an Active Directory integration? Regards, Brian.
