I think in return we already give OpenLDAP software.  That should be
enough, IMHO.  If the internet were made by narrow-minded persons like
you (I guess it's not just you, there might be some company's policy
behind), you wouldn't even have been able to contact us by email,
because email wouldn't have existed, not to mention the rest.

Same on OpenLDAP, not to mention the rest.

That's not allowed by the foundation's charter.

You started this, no one invited you.  Feel free to leave.

Well, so what would be your interest in our project?  If you offer me
something I guess you do it for some purpose.

You see, you need our feedback to debug your product.

Anyway I think with this series of greedy public messages you gave good
advertising to your project.  I wish you tons of customers.
