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.

Really? You must not have looked very hard then.
<http://www.openldap.org/lists/openldap-devel/201709/msg00000.html>
covers some 22 contributions.
<http://www.openldap.org/lists/openldap-devel/201709/msg00003.html>
discussions some contributions related to man page fixes.

covers work I did to make TLS command line options for the ldap* tools
<http://www.openldap.org/lists/openldap-devel/201706/msg00006.html> is
part of an ongoing discussion of allowing ldap clients to use a
specific local address
<http://www.openldap.org/lists/openldap-devel/201706/msg00000.html> is
a discussion about adding ldap_init_fd contribution from samba
etc.
What I see as a major problem is that there is no will. OpenLDAP project
clearly needs major improvement. But there are almost no contributors to
improve the project.
As demonstrated by the above you clearly are incorrect. I would
generally suggest you withhold comment on the project until you have
some clue what you're talking about.
