It's best for the schema originator, Netscape in this case, to
provide the LDAPv3 compliant (RFC 2252) schema definitions.  From
server vendors, one should be able to read such from subschema
subentries published by their product (with their schema loaded).
The mapping between LDAPv2 and LDAPv3 schema definitions is not
direct (otherwise we would have provided software to do the mapping).

Out of scope of this ITS (which has been closed).  You
have mistakes, you will have questions, please take them
to the software mailing list.

We'd welcome this as well.

We ask that documentation be submitted in Simple Document Format.
I guess that this shouldn't be a problem for you.
