openldap and FDS

Where the heck is it? 

"Fedora Directory Server (FDS), Red Hat's open source LDAP server, makes
setting up an enterprise directory server on Linux simple."

Great! I'd like to have it! Anyone have a clue where this miracle cure
lives and what the rpm package name is? I've never seen anything simple
to set up openldap with and I really need it. I've got everything
installed that I can find, and the only binaries that I have are
in /usr/sbin and none are named "Fedora-DS", as this article alludes
to.

What throws me is that this piece says the package will install to /opt
RedHat would smoke crack before using the /opt directory for anything.
They have signs posted that read "Just say NO to /opt!", "We're an /opt
free environment!" and "Save /opt, nuke Jane Fonda!" (some tree-hugging
veggie-burger eater that snuck in, no doubt). I did check to see if it
was dated April the first, which it isn't.  Ric

..says that the default setup files are in /opt! I AM taken aback. My
head is hurting from reading this document. I'm really hoping for easy
as described in the linux.com article. The RedHat.com article mentions
"Enterprise RedHat Linux" (translated $$$$) so I'm looking for the
Fedora Version (the cheap seats)
