The FAQ is historic, 99% of what's in it is incorrect.
Hmm, would it be possible to add a warning to all FAQ articles, or even to get rid of it completely? The FAQ unfortunately features rather prominently in Google search results, e.g. if I search for "openldap starttls", https://www.openldap.org/faq/data/cache/185.html is the second result. Apart from the rather outdated design and the "Copyright 1998-2013" line at the very bottom, it's not at all obvious to visitors that the information is outdated.
A quick search for "site:github.com inurl:issues "openldap.org/faq"" shows that e.g. the STARTTLS FAQ article seems to be quoted often:
