The intensity of effort is up to you. There are currently 26 tickets in the ITS for back-sql that
have never been investigated. I have no idea how long any of them would take to address. It's up
to you to see how much can be done between releases.

We already may have a suitable candidate for you. I keep you posted about it once he has had some time to familiarise himself with the back-sql. Depending on the workload that comes from the maintenance of the back-sql I might be willing to temporarily look over things regarding that component if it would make it more probable to stay in the future releases of the OpenLDAP.
