Re: ChangeLogEntry and openLdap

Once we get the slapi API going, we could port the IBM implementation
of ChnageLog.

Changelog is not implemented in OpenLDAP.  You are welcomed to
implement it, but I'd suggest you consider implementing LCUP
instead.

If you do implement changelog, be sure to use the latest
changelog I-D <draft-good-ldap-changelog-02.txt> as a basis.

Both changelog and LCUP would require significant work (which
is why they haven't been implemented).
