The International Conference on LDAP is a technical forum for IT professionals interested in LDAP and related topics like directory servers, directory management applications, directory integration, identity and access management, and meta directories. It focuses on implementation and integration of LDAP servers and LDAP-enabled client applications. The event will bring together vendors, developers, active and prospective LDAP practitioners to share their experiences about deployment strategies, service operations, interoperability, discuss LDAP usage in new projects and learn about upcoming trends and developments.

They both remain viable candidates for release tomorrow. There are only two differences from RC-1.3 to RC-1.4: 1. One additional patch in the stratisd series intended to improve things on multi-disk encrypted installs 2. The Cosmic fix from RC-1.2 that was missed in RC-1.3 is back so virtually all results aside from Stratis tests should be transferrable between RC-1.3 and RC-1.4. If you're starting testing now, please use RC-1.4, but if you got RC-1.3 images and are testing already, please go ahead and post your results on the RC-1.3 pages. I'll combine the results as necessary ahead of the go/no-go meeting tomorrow.
