i think it's not a bad idea to use ldap groups for the teams and email alias 
could be given automatically on basis of those chosen ldap groups

i see on longer term people registering in catdap; requesting group membership 
for a team; and someone from the team leaders to add that person to the ldap 
group. with no sysadmin intervention.
