Re: short names (descriptors) proposal
Kurt,
I like the approach you've outlined.
Regarding the use of the same name for an attribute type and an object
class - I agree that it should be "discouraged". I don't think the
specifications need to explicitly DIS-allow it.

Just a question:
Is it allowed (and your intention) that different schema element types
share
the same name? E.g. an object class and an attribute type both registered
with name 'fooBar'?
Ciao, Michael.
