Question about subentries draft


It's come to my attention that draft-ietf-ldup-infomod-07
has a normative reference to draft-zeilenga-ldap-subentry-07.  

Since the informod authors are trying to clean up infomod for publication,
what's your plans for publishing this draft?

Thanks, 
Ryan (for the infomod authors)

The subentry I-D should soon appear in the RFC Editor's queue...

All right, let's try again after I had some coffee. ;-)

LDAP Duplication/Replication/Update Protocols WG (ldup)

Tuesday, July 15 at 1300-1400 
================================

CHAIRS: Chris Apple <capple <at> dsi-consulting.net>
                John Strassner <john.strassner <at> intelliden.com>

AGENDA:

1) Agenda Additions?

No additions were asked for, so the meeting proceeded according to the agenda.

2) LCUP WG Last Call & Status
 http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-ldup-lcup-05.txt

No further discussion occurred on this document.

3) Remaining WG Documents

InfoMod Draft
 http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-ldup-infomod-07.txt

Rick Huber presented slides describing the progress of this draft.
This presentation reflects the new group of authors that are 
picking up the work. The authors presented a number of questions to
the working group involving various attributes defined in the draft.
The first was whether the two RootDSA attributes are really useful.
They were originally defined to help discovery, but the classes all
have unique names, so this need is no longer crucial. Steven Legg
proposed removing them, and people in the meeting agreed. No one 
asked to have them left in the draft. Thus, since the MRM draft will
by definition discover any problems with these or other similar 
attributes not being defined in the draft, it was decided to remove
these for the next revision of the draft.

Other attributes – attributeExclusionFilter, attributeInclusionFilter,
secondsToWaitDefault, and secondsToWait2 – were defined as 
disallowing user modification. This didn’t seem like a good idea, and
the working group agreed. The new draft will change this as well.

The next subject was whether multiple replicas can exist at the same
context root (see slide 2 of the presentation). This would 
facilitate copying replica information. Slide 3 shows an alternative.
The working group preferred slide 2.

General Usage Profile Draft
 http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-ldup-usage-profile-05.txt

The main work done on this draft since the last meeting was to go
through the draft and clean up references. In doing so, two issues
arose. The first involved the status of the locate draft. The status
on this draft is that it went through Last Call, and was reviewed by
the IESG. The IESG had some technical issues with the draft. Bob 
Morgan will try and update this draft as soon as possible, probably
one month from now. Kurt thought that it depended on 2247bis, and 
that it shouldn’t be normative. Since the Usage Profile is 
informational, it doesn’t need to be held up by this draft.

The other problem was a reference to the taxonomy draft. Note that
CRISP also has a reference to taxonomy. Roland said that he and
Ryan would try and update taxonomy by mid-August. Thus, it was
agreed that the reference to locate could be removed, and the
authors would wait to see if taxonomy was indeed updated by 
mid August.

MRM Draft
 http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-ldup-mrm-02.txt

This draft needs to wait for the InfoMod draft to complete. Then, it
can be updated. Kurt was uncomfortable with the word “Mandatory” in
the title of the draft because of its implications. It was agreed to
change the title to “Replica Management”, but to keep the file name
the same for administrative reasons.

Architecture draft
 http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-ldup-model-08.txt

Uppili sent a note to the chairs providing the following status 
(since he was unable to attend). He will be submitting a draft 
shortly that in his opinion will be ready for last call. 

Jerry Maziarsky and Uppili have discussed the following four types
of edits that must be fixed before the document is ready for 
consideration for last call. The first is that the discussions on 
different deployment configurations (single vs multi-master) and
consistency models (synchronous vs asynchronous) should be 
separated and cleaned up. The second is that the architecture 
implies that the DITs of replicating directories have to be 
symmetric, but in actuality only the areas under replication need 
be.  The third is that the document should include discussion on 
how nodes are added, deleted or upgraded without adversely 
affecting total system up-time, since one of the objectives of 
replication is high availability. The final edit is that they need
to clarify whether LDUP scope is only among homogenous DSAs (same
vendor) or it supports heterogeneous DSAs (multi-vendor). 
The authors believe that it is heterogeneous.	

URP Draft
 http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-ldup-urp-07.txt

The URP Draft is waiting for InfoMod to complete. Then, Steven will
check all references and submit the document for final group Last Call.

URP Draft
 http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-ldup-protocol-04.txt

An update of this draft will be issued shortly.

4) Any Other Business

As there was no other business, the meeting concluded.

If by "update", someone means "reissue" then I'm ok with this.  If by
"update" someone means "update and go back through the process" then I have
problems.  My notes are that taxonomy has cleared all the hurdles (read:
its in the RFC editors queue waiting for locate).  If locate isn't going
anywhere, working on taxonomy is not worth the time, because of the
hidden dependency.

I-D ACTION:draft-ietf-ldup-lcup-06.txt

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the LDAP Duplication/Replication/Update Protocols Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: LDAP Client Update Protocol
	Author(s)	: R. Megginson, M. Smith, O. Natkovich, J. Parham
	Filename	: draft-ietf-ldup-lcup-06.txt
	Pages		: 28
	Date		: 2003-8-27
	
This document defines the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol 
(LDAP) Client Update Protocol (LCUP). The protocol is intended to 
allow an LDAP client to synchronize with the content of a directory 
information tree (DIT) stored by an LDAP server and to be notified 
about the changes to that content.

A URL for this Internet-Draft is:
