I don't have a strong opinion either way. It should be noted that the

on including all the rules from RFC 3698, except for storedPrefixMatch,
then I'll take care of it.
Are there any objections to adding these rules?
Any objection to adding octetStringSubstringsMatch as well?
I couldn't include it in RFC 3698 due to how substrings
assertions were defined in RFC 2251/2252. Now that we've
fixed substrings assertions, octetStringSubstringsMatch
can now properly be specified for use in LDAP. Given that
LDAP matching rule specification does little more than
incorporate the X.500 rule, I don't have a problem with
including it (even though it is not presently specified
in a standard track RFC).

Will the matching rules from RFC 3698 be included in [Syntaxes]?
It was discussed in thread 'Protocol: Rolling in recent updates'
in December; Kurt had a list of suggested 'SHOULD/MAY implement'.
