Talk:389 Directory Server

message: I am not an expert here, but this content seems to have a few errors or maybe it just seems misleading to me.
Here are my thoughts tell me if I am crazy.  
Quote - 
The Fedora Directory Server (FDS) is a robust, scalable server designed to manage large directories of users and resources. It is based on an open-systems server protocol called the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP). It is built on the Linux Kernel, and developed by the community-supported Fedora Project, sponsored by Red Hat.
It is not built on the Linux Kernel if anything it is based off the Netscape Directory code (and perhaps also the Apache Portable Runtime, Netscape Security Services (NSS), et al.)
I think it would be better to say the internet standard directory protocol called the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP).
(LDAP is an Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) standard produced through an the open Request for Comments (RFC) process used by the IETF, but really that belongs on a page about LDAP not FDS)
Is it developed by the Fedora Project?  (Or is this just branding)
Quote 2:
The project was recently acquired by Red Hat, and on June 1, 2005, much of the source code was open sourced under the terms of the GNU General Public License, commonly refered to as the GPL. Red Hat plans to release much, if not all, of the rest of the source code under the GPL sometime in the future, but is still in the process of making that happen.
This has happened.  RH has now released everything in source form.  (see [FDS FAQ])
Quote 3:
FDS is being built on top of Fedora Core 3, but supports many operating systems including Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 and 4, Solaris 2.8+, Windows 2000, Windows XP, and HP/UX 11i.
Perhaps it would be more accurate to say:
FDS is being developed primarily on the Fedora Core Linux distribution, but runs on many platforms including Solaris 2.8+, Windows 2000, Windows XP, and HP/UX 11i. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 155.178.180.5 (talk • contribs) 17:10, December 19, 2005  (UTC)

I also think there are many people that would not agree with the statement "..is the newest incarnation of what was once the original University ...". Additionally, as the article points out, it is not a "new" anything as it is based on the core SLAPD project form 1993 and the many contributions form many people along the way. -jim 08:56, 6 August 2010 (UTC)
