+1, thanks for helping with this, John.

Thank you, Ryan.

Indeed, I have been using the version on experimental as a base for
Ubuntu's OpenLDAP package.  I am more than willing to help with the
switch and sponsor uploads to experimental, though.  I usually need to
perform Ubuntu merges once per cycle (i.e., every six months), so we can
work on the switch during these intervals.

Thanks,
