Please submit a "sta= tement of origin" in a follow-up to this ITS.

If the work includes materials derived from works= to which others own or otherwise have rights to, please detail.<br>=0A<br>= =0AThe Foundation has no objection to the Project establishing a sub-projec= t of the OpenLDAP Project, similar to the Java LDAP and JDBC-LDAP sub proje= cts, to develop works based upon your contribution.

The O= penLDAP Foundation will license its copyright right interests (initially li= kely quite limited) using the OpenLDAP Public License, and will encourage c= ommunity members to license their contributions in a manner consistent with= our general contribution guidelines.
