I would like to second this approach.  We have implemented a hardware-based
solution using the existing PCIM schema, and with our goal to be following
this standard as much as possible.  Our experience with deprecating schema,
especially within the scope of LDAP, is that it is not a "good thing". While
we would like to strive to adopt PCIMe and PCLS for some of the extensions
that it brings, we would be hard-pressed to adopt such a sweeping change as
currently submitted.  I believe, that with Ryan's suggestions, the ability
to extend an existing implementation from PCIM would be more approachable
than in its current form.

rgds,
d.

I have running code that uses PolicyRule and PolicyRule.Priority quite
happily through subclasses, so I really don't see the need to deprecate it.
