Well, I don't think we can do that for v3. I'm just trying to get
clarification on whether we should explicitly state that alias dereferencing
does not happen for those three op's. >>> "Ramsay, Ron" <Ron.Ramsay@ca.com> 11/16/00 6:30:37 PM >>> Surely, we wouldn't dereference an alias for ModifyDNRequest but we would for the other two. Probably, CompareRequest should have a deref boolean in the definition.

Should we add similar language to the latter three? Jim |
