Description: 
The MigrationTools are a set of Perl scripts for migrating users, groups,
aliases, hosts, netgroups, networks, protocols, RPCs, and services from
existing nameservices (flat files, NIS, and NetInfo) to LDAP.


The migration tools were packaged as part of openldap-servers rpm. This is not 
good because:
- migrationtools have different upstream than openldap
- users may want to have openldap without migrationtools
- users do not know where to find migrationtools and they do not know it's part 
of openldap-servers.
- the maintenance of migrationtools can be independent on openldap

The migrationtools use slapadd and ldapadd internally, therefore the new 
package naturally depends on openldap-clients and openldap-servers. I will 
leave a short README.migration in openldap-servers, so users used to install 
openldap-servers will know where the migrationtools are.

You can find both new openldap and migrationtools packages on 
http://people.redhat.com/jsafrane/migrationtools/
