Let's see - it does multimaster in 2.4, has done schema replication since 2.3 (as part of in-directory config replication - FDS doesn't do that). And there's no mention of <a href="http://www.connexitor.com/blog/pivot/entry.php?id=130" rel="nofollow">benchmarks</a>. Admittedly I'm in the camp that can't understand why RH bought NDS instead of contributing to OpenLDAP - sure, I've got nostalgia for the Netscape server products, but that doesn't make them good code.
