You've got several Gentoo developers that have LDAP rolled out in their offices. robbat2 (obviously, since he maintains the pkg and alot of great tools), jokey, dev-zero and myself I know for sure. I'm sure we'd be willing to provide some feedback to the documentation. But like Robin said in his follow up to your e-mail, nothing is necessarily broken/wrong with the guide.
