[389-users] Review 389-ds install/upgrade procedures and requisites on http://directory.fedoraproject.org/docs/389ds/download.html

[Robert Viduya]

Ok, I'll look into upgrading.  It sounds like I need to stop paying attention to the 389 website and just stick to Redhat's site for release information.

So, yes, there's at least one fix that we need that isn't available to us.  But really, there's tons of bug fixes and features that have come out since then.  The longer we're held back, the harder it will be to get our user base to adapt to all the new features once we do upgrade.

This has descriptions of the changes along with bugzilla bug number and sometimes 389 trac ticket numbers.
