Default Analyzer 1.1 Trying to connect to AD

So I just got a demo code for Analyzer 1.1, trying it against AD, and I
try to build a connection, select Directory, Active Directory, and there
are no configs in the list.

What does that mean?

I can connect to eDir via the LDAP connector (all that is offered) and
pull back data. (PS: Love the IDS trace, make my life easy).

I then said, ok, lets call it a generic LDAP source, set it up, seems to
connect (Trace looks good!) seems, to submit queries, but they die. I
figured ok, that is AD's 1000 object return limit, (PS: Could we get
paging in the Query please to beat this silly AD limit? Easier than
getting the AD admin to change it, since the drivers already all support
Query-ex operations).

I test the credentials in the Gowars Java LDAP Browser and I can see the
tree, users, etc. I see an issue if I query for Users, as I hit the
1000 object limit, ok. But at least I get some data back. So I know
the LDAP server, and credentials are correct.

Seems like I am missing some step that should be obvious!

PS: The Import data step is totally non-obvious, before you can do an
Analysis or Matching profile... The UI needs some hint as to what is
needed to continue!

PPS: Help seems out of step with the current UI. Some of the imagery
does not look anything like what I am seeing in the 1.1 build!
