due to discussions with people on other lists, this list will be shut down
in 1 week. please subscribe yourself to the openldap-general list instead.
we may create a seperate list in the future but for now I'm collapsing the
list over to openldap...

subscription information can be found at www.openldap.org

archived mail can be found at www.mail-archive.com

I favor including it here until it overwhelms the list because there seems to be alot of discussion about this
here.

Also there are 2 newsgroups from Netscape. netscape.server.directory netscape.dev.directory. While primarily about
Netscape's LDAP server and SDKs we often talk about similar issues in there also (they are indexed by dejanews)
