It's great to have you on board.  

I've been thinking about what things remain TODO, that you might want to
look into. 

One area, as there is nobody looking into it at all at the moment, is
trusted domains.  Samba4 needs to properly handle this from the KDC, the
NETLOGON server, to LSA and DRSUAPI (both cross-domain replication and
DsCrackNames forwarding).  

We need to implement inter-forest as well as interdomain (parent/child
etc) trusts. 

It's also a critical part of the IPAv3 plans, at least as they were when
I left Red Hat.
