The list doesn't actually change daily, but will grow in time to include all non-Sun (3rd party) applications which use an LDAP library, since all of them already use OpenLDAP today and that will not change. The first round is APR which bring in Apache httpd + PHP. Others will follow at a later time. > To date, I have not made any commitments. This is a surprising turn of events since, while not a final signing, up to now I know Jeff & you had a nearly final draft of the contact ready to go. If you're now not able to commit (which is fine, I understand all too well your resource constraints) to the level of support agreed earlier (which is "NONE", just occasionally dropping in updates of the upstream library as-is) then looks like management needs to find a new owner for OpenLDAP. -- Jyri J.
