Is there a date set that LDAP_DEPRECATED will not be supported anymore?
No.
And should we (docs team) put something on Faq-O-Matic (devel section), or in the new devel guide (once an outline/template has been put in place) that presents the "Best Practice" for updating their code?
Personally, I think it would be better to focus the limited documentation time/energy we have toward documenting non-deprecated code (and discussing how to write clients using non-deprecated code).
But as I've noted before, (code and documentation) developers should work on what they need/want... and, if its generally useful, it will find its way into OpenLDAP Software (and/or other materials provided by the Project). That is, don't let my (or other statements) stop anyone from working on what they need/want.

That settles it then. If we get asked, we can point them to the latest ldap.h
Like you say, we can't spread ourselves too thinly.

Of course.
Thanks for the reply.
