When it is, how would I
install it?

The existing code is in almost all developer snapshots of the last few
months.  Just try the last one from http://cygwin.com/snapshots/ and
read my preliminary documentation attached to this mail again (and
which, incidentally, is now in the offical docs in the repo as well).

I guess I was just curious as to what the package name might be... NIS? AD or ActiveDirectory or CygwinUserIntegration...

How about "@"?

Dunno.  It *might* be a good alternative to '+'.  Personally I just
dislike that a '@' is a less "light" character and it might give a wrong
idea.  Email:  name AT domain.  Cygwin account:  domain AT name.

Yeah I wish we could switch it to name@domain...
