The generalized time syntax is defined by X.208.  You can get your
copy of X.208 from ITU bookstore for 34 CHF.
  http://www.itu.int/plweb-cgi/fastweb?getdoc+view1+itudoc+5579+1++X.208

Order me a copy while your at it :-)

I believe basically extends the uTCTimeSyntax (also described in X.208)
but either allows or requires a century specification.  It also,
I believe allows for fractional seconds to be specified.

OpenLDAP updates modifyTimestamp only upon successful completion
of a Modify operation.
