LDAPv3 Profile Issue

[David Chadwick <d.w.chadwick@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Colleagues

at the Vienna meeting I stated that the only outstanding issue with the
LDAPv3 profile was the use of multi-valued RDNs. However, there is also
the use of the ;binary extension that still has to be addressed and
resolved (unfortunately), since the profile needs to state what PKI
clients should do with ;binary.

The ;binary issue is holding up the final calls on the LDAPv3 profile,
and the LDAP PKI and PMI schema documents (from Steven Legg and myself).
Fortunately it does not affect the LDAP attribute extraction schema
profiles that are due to be published as Informational RFCs, but
nevertheless we do need closure on the ;binary issue as soon as possible

regards

David
