 H1: Building and Installing OpenLDAP Software
 
 This chapter details how to build and install the {{ORG:OpenLDAP}}
 Software package including {{slapd}}(8), the stand-alone LDAP
 daemon and {{slurpd}}(8), the stand-alone update replication daemon.
-
 Building and installing OpenLDAP requires several steps: installing
 prerequisite software, configuring OpenLDAP itself, making, and finally
 installing.  The following sections describe this process in detail.
 
-In case you haven't already obtained OpenLDAP it is available at
-the following location:
-{{URL: ftp://ftp.openldap.org/pub/OpenLDAP/openldap-release.tgz}}.
-
-The {{ORG[expand]OLP}} also maintains an extensive site
-({{URL:http://www.OpenLDAP.org/}}) on the World Wide Web.  The site
-makes available a number of resources which you may utilize to
-properly install OpenLDAP Software.  This includes:

+H2: Obtaining and Extracting the Software
+
+You can obtain OpenLDAP Software from the project's download
+page at {{URL: http://www.openldap.org/software/download/}} or
+directly from the project's {{TERM:FTP}} service at
+{{URL: ftp://ftp.openldap.org/pub/OpenLDAP/}}.
+
+The project makes available two series of packages for {{general
+use}}.  The project makes {{releases}} as new features and bug
+fixes come available.  Though the project takes steps to improve
+stablity of these releases, it is common for problems to arise
+only after {{release}}.  The latest {{release}} which has
+demonstrated stability through general use.
+
+Users of OpenLDAP Software can choose, depending on their desire
+for the {{latest features}} versus {{demonstrated stability}},
+the most appropriate series to install.
+
+After downloading OpenLDAP Software, you need to extract the
+distribution from the compressed archive file and change your
+working directory to the top directory of the distribution:
+
+.{{EX:gunzip -c openldap-VERSION.tgz | tar xf -}}
+.{{EX:cd openldap-VERSION}}
+
+You'll have to replace {{EX:VERSION}} with the version name of
+the release.
+
+You should now review the {{F:COPYRIGHT}}, {{F:LICENSE}},
+{{F:README}} and {{F:INSTALL}} documents provided with the
+distribution.  The {{F:COPYRIGHT}} and {{F:LICENSE}} provide
+information on acceptable use, copying, and limitation of warranty
+of OpenLDAP software. The {{F:README}} and {{F:INSTALL}} documents
+provide detailed information on prerequisite software and
+installation procedures.

 do not require use of the {{env}}(1) command.  In some cases, environmental
 variables have to be specified using alternative syntaxes.
