Net_LDAP is still maintained for bugfixes, however, no further development will be included. Net_LDAP is meant for old systems depending on php4 since Net_LDAP2 is php5 only. Net_LDAP will be available in pear, but becomes unmaintained if Net_LDAP2 becomes stable. Maybe it will be supported for bugs a short while after that, if the bugs affects Net_LDAP2 too. I think the best solution is, to make a net-ldap1 and a net-ldap2 package, and a meta package net-ldap that installs net-ldap2. This way, users will automatically upgrade to net-ldap2 (which is compatible to Net_LDAP) but still can downgrade to net-ldap1 if they need to. But maybe there are better solutions in debian package management i dont know of.
