The docs of openldap are really not clear
I suggest you make more precise statements: what's not clear, and how
should it be improved. Otherwise your statement is simply offensive
with respect to the many persons that voluntarily (i.e. without being
paid, and often out of their little spare time) dedicated to writing the
documentation. In fact, as developers, we shouldn't care too much about
documenting our work. All in all, we can read the code, and we already
know how it works, so we shouldn't care too much about your needs as
soon as they do not match ours. Note that I intentionally ignored your
question, since it has been answered many times, as you may find out by
searching the archives, and answering it once more seemed to be a real
waste of time that I could have dedicated to improving the documents, if
I received a valid feedback about where improvement is needed.
p.
Pierangelo,
I don't want to get into a debate about the importance of
documentation, but documentation is really one of the most important
things about software. If you as a developer understand the code, this
doesn't mean the code is usable since most of those who use it are not
developers and do not know how to read the code. Everybody appreciates
the time and effort given by the developers. The administrator guide has
no mention of the overlays (at least not chain) and the man pages do not
give enough description, also the administrator guide could add examples
for some configurations, maybe like those ones being asked in the
mailing list.
I really searched for my question a lot in the list but could not find it.
Thank you anyway.
