Excerpts from Rich Megginson's message of Thu Sep 16 14:09:09 -0400 2010:
389-ds-base-1.2.6-0.1.a1 was the very first alpha version (i.e.
unstable, not recommended for production use) that somehow got released
to the F13 stable repository. We didn't think that early alpha users
would mind upgrading, or that early alpha users would deploy it into
production. I apologize for any pain/confusion caused by that.
Ah, no worries, I was just a little surprised because Fedora 13 seemed
to have been shipping that version by default. I didn't even realize
I was using an alpha. :-)
Cheers,
Edward
