List charter

[Howard Chu <hyc@symas.com>]

Recent emails imply that a reminder is in order - this email list is for 
discussion of actual development of OpenLDAP software. Discussion about 
how OpenLDAP software works or how to use it belongs on the -technical 
list. If you're not actively engaged in writing code for inclusion in 
the OpenLDAP repos then you should not be posting questions here.

On a slightly more pointed note - if you post to this list and your 
message is deemed off-topic or insufficiently researched, you *will* be 
chided, mocked, and denigrated. There *is* such a thing as a stupid 
question. If you don't read what's in front of you, if you ignore the 
list charter, or the text of the welcome message that is sent to every 
new subscriber, you will be publicly mocked and made unwelcome.

This is entirely intentional and by design. Ask good questions within 
the bounds of the list charter and you will get good answers. If you're 
not conscientious enough to pay attention to details then I don't want 
you here. Demonstrating a basic ability to read is the minimum price of 
admission.
