There were some issues in 2.2.13 release I wanted to not have, so I moved 
to 2.2.15.  It has been stable in my dev, test, and production environments.

Release information can be found here:

<http://www.openldap.org/software/release/announce.html>
<http://www.openldap.org/software/release/changes.html>


I suggest reading the man pages carefully for 2.2, as moving straight to 
2.1 to 2.2 can be non-straightforward.

Note that you will have to export and re-import your database, as the 
underlying storage mechanism (hash) has changed (to btree's) for the 
database.

Pay particular attention to ACL syntax.  I suggest reading:

<http://www.stanford.edu/services/directory/openldap/configuration/slapd-acl.html>

as well.
