+ The perl-ldap distribution is a collection of perl modules which provide an
+object orientated interface to LDAP servers.
+
+ The perl-ldap distribution has several advantages:
+
+ * By using the perl object interface the perl-ldap modules provide
+ programmers with an interface which allows complex searches of LDAP
+ directories with only a small amount of code.
+
+ * All the perl-ldap modules are written entirely in perl, which means that
+ the library is truly cross-platform compatible. No C or XS extension are
+ used so no C compiler is needed to install the modules.
