Add some of the data from ldap.toolforge.org tool
Open, LowPublicFeature

Description

Why

  • In the future, we should make a ticket proposing that on Phabricator profile pages, the LDAP username hyperlinks to TechContribs instead of the LDAP tool.
  • To make this more likely to succeed, let's add to TechContribs any information that the LDAP tool has but that TechContribs doesn't have.

What

  • Add email address
  • Add User ID number
  • Add account created time
  • Add SSH keys

Hmm, general LDAP data (i.e. your int ID, account creation, SSH keys, etc.) is a bit out of scope for Tech Contribs. I'm currently not aiming to replace the ldap tool entirely, as these two tools do different things. Tech Contribs is also generally slower, because it has to fetch way more data. 😅

I do want to see a bit more feedback from others if they'd also want this data in Tech Contribs/want Tech Contribs to act as a substitute ldap.toolforge.org, and maybe then I'll work on this.
