The IESG has approved the following document:

- 'Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP): Syntaxes and Matching Rules '
   <draft-ietf-ldapbis-syntaxes-11.txt> as a Proposed Standard

This document is the product of the LDAP (v3) Revision Working Group. 

The IESG contact persons are Ted Hardie and Scott Hollenbeck.

Technical Summary
 
   Each attribute stored in a Lightweight Directory Access Protocol
   (LDAP) directory, and whose values may be transfered in the LDAP
   protocol, has a defined syntax which constrains the structure and
   format of its values.  The comparison semantics for values of a
   syntax are not part of the syntax definition but are instead provided
   through separately defined matching rules.  Matching rules specify an
   argument, an assertion value, which also has a defined syntax.  This
   document defines a base set of syntaxes and matching rules for use in
   defining attributes for LDAP directories.
  (What does this protocol do and why does the community need it?)
