Ah, archive.org still has most of it. https://web.archive.org/web/20190727013018/https://www.redhat.com/archives/freeipa-devel/2009-June/msg00300.html
"Pros on OpenLDAP:
* It'll make FreeIPA mor "standard"
* It'll help adding better support on other LDAP implementations
* Shoter TTM for having "FreeIPA Server" in Ubuntu
Cons on OpenLDAP:
* It'll lower the need for 389DS
* Some features available in 389DS will be missing (and when available
they won't be so stable)"

@hyc@mastodon.social IIRC, there were two problems: spammers flooded community mailing lists to the point that it was almost impossible to handle that and the second issue was migration of the Red Hat's malining lists off mailman to other platform. We ended up migrating mailing lists to Fedora's mailman. To date, freeipa-users@ is in top three most active mailing lists in Fedora community. Loss of original archives was a sad history.
