RE: moving access control discussion to LDUP

So how will the protocol be able to interoperate without a common ACM?

thanks,
John

Subject: RE: moving access control discussion to LDUP


Please note that I feel the LDUP WG should not undertake
the LDAP ACM work or any other new work.  The LDUP WG
needs to narrow its focus and trim its workload if it
is ever to successfully conclude.

And also I ask that the charter be clarified as to the
extent of work this WG is undertaking (or intends to
undertake).  In particular, the charter should state
whether or not the group intends to:
	1) Update LDAPv3 "core" specification (including
	   its normative references),
	2) Define an ACM for LDAPv3, and/or
	3) Define an authentication identity to
	   authorization identity mapping scheme.

(Note that the mapping scheme is needed for an ACM
to provide any reasonable level of consistent access
to client entities in a replicated environment.)
