Re: I-D ACTION:draft-ietf-ldapext-locate-04.txt

["Kurt D. Zeilenga" <Kurt@OpenLDAP.org>]

This draft is pretty much ready to be progressed. However,
I believe the removal of CLDAP is incomplete.  In section
4,
	<Proto> is a protocol that can be either "udp" or "tcp"

Per the current I-D, both "udp" or "tcp" are being used to
locate LDAP as defined by RFC 2251.  However, RFC 2251 defines
no mapping for LDAP over UDP.   The authors have (appropriately,
IMO) stricken all mention of CLDAP so this specification can
be progressed to Draft Standard without waiting on CLDAP
maturity).  As such, I believe '"udp" or' should likewise
be stricken or the above phrase changed to:
	<Proto> is "tcp".

If someone defines a mapping of LDAP over other protocols
(such as "rdp"), the specification can be updated.  If
someone wants to locate CLDAP using DNS SRV records, they
should submit an I-D which provides a specification for
such.  This I-D, in it's current form, does not (and IMO
shouldn't).
