Re: slapo-unique man page misleading (ITS#5908)

Hi,
Please see this thread for background info:
http://www.openldap.org/lists/openldap-software/200901/msg00112.html

To me, something is either guaranteed or not. And I think "enforce" means something that is guaranteed.
In this case, the uniqueness is not guaranteed, therefore it is not enforced.

It would need more words than that to comment on what exactly happens i.e. why
it is a "best effort".
