Re: Antw: Re: Olc deployment vs slapd.conf based deployment

[Radovan Semancik <radovan.semancik@evolveum.com>]

What I meant were external contributions from people outside of the core 
team. And I have obviously missed (at least) one such contribution. I'm 
sorry for this. My fault. And I get your point and I apologize for this 
confusion.

I just want to point out I haven't failed to notice that all of my other 
points got ignored. But I'm afraid that it does not make much difference 
anyway. I do not think I can help here. And I do not think I can improve 
this project in any way. I'm really sorry for this. And I sincerely 
apologize for all this uproar that I have caused in the mailing list. 
But I consider the information that I have got from this discussion to 
be very important. And I think that it may be also important for other 
potential contributors and users of OpenLDAP.

Thank you all for your time.
