Hmm, maybe I don't fully understand the consequences of the "Obsoleted
by" in rfc-index.txt and the goal of the LDAPbis WG. IMHO OpenLDAP
should aim to be compliant to RFC 45xx (result of LDAPbis WG).

As I understood Kurt's LDAPcon presentation there are only the following
differences in the specification:

1. Using LDAPprep
2. SASLprep for textual passwords
3. Simple bind + StartTLS mandantory to implement (instead of SASL
DIGEST-MD5)

This is from memory and therefore maybe incomplete. So what's the issue
for OpenLDAP 2.3 with being compliant to RFC 45xx?

Ciao, Michael.
