[Fedora-directory-users] Schema Conversion

[Rich Megginson]

Thanks.  The script looks pretty useful.  I've created an OpenLDAP 
migration section of the wiki - 
http://directory.fedora.redhat.com/wiki/Howto:OpenLDAPMigration#Schema - 
and added your script.  I left in your name but removed your email 
address.  I can add it back if you like.
