	There's no HOWTO-style documentation (because *I* don't
	usually want to read such, so I don't want to write it), but
	there current head of the tree actually has decent
	docstrings. Here's a few links:

	API Docs: http://tv.debian.net/software/ldaptor/api/

	Main site: http://tv.debian.net/software/ldaptor/

	See the latest code: http://ldaptor.bkbits.net/



	There's also *13* example client apps, as of now.

	The search utility should be reasonably obvious:

	http://ldaptor.bkbits.net:8080/ldaptor/anno/bin/ldaptor-search@1.12?nav=index.html|src/|src/bin


	You also have this great mailing list to ask questions on.
