Re: LDAP PKI Schema (was Re: No-op LDAP ;binary option)




>Nevertheless two different solutions to one problem might be preferable here.

My primary objection to standardizing the child entry approach
for PKI is that it is a PKI-specific solution to a general problem,
component matching of complex attribute values.   We should be
looking for general solutions to our general problems.  Steven's
component matching I-D details a general solution which I believe
is suitable for standardization.

My recommendation is that the PKI "child entry" approach be
pursued individually as an Experimental (or possibly Informational)
solution to the PKI component matching problem with a note that
a more general solution, component matching, is being standardized.
