It's hard to call > this policy "right". You're complaining in the wrong place. How about complaining about the <insert your favorite Linux distribution here> policy to not track the OpenLDAP releases closely? You seem to think if a Linux distribution releases a certain old OpenLDAP version then it's the OpenLDAP maintainers' job to support that version as long as the distribution ships it. That's pretty unfair to the OpenLDAP maintainers. They had no say in the distribution's decision to ship the old version. Think about it. jens
