Agreed (pretty easy to see). :-)

What I meant was the download URL's would indicate we are using
the 2.2.x 'release' version, which right now would be 2.2.27

I tend to agree. A chance to move to the 2.3.x branch. However,
what bothers me is this test from the web site.

==============================================================
"The term "release", as used on the download web page
(http://www.openldap.org/software/download/) refers to the
lastest version of the OpenLDAP Software available for "general
use".

The term "stable" refers to the last "general use" release that
has demonstrated itself as being reliable in real world environments."
===============================================================

Notice the "demonstrated itself as being reliable in real world
environments"

This would indicate to me to use the 'stable' versions.
