A Revised Internet Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts
directories. This draft is a work item of the OSI Directory Services 
Working Group of the IETF.                                            

Note: This revision reflects comments received during the last call period.

       Title     : A String Representation of Distinguished Names     
       Author(s) : S. E. Hardcastle-Kille
       Filename  : draft-ietf-osids-distnames-04.txt, .ps
       Pages     : 8

The OSI Directory uses distinguished names as the primary keys to 
entries in the directory.  Distinguished Names are encoded in ASN.1. 
When a distinguished name is communicated between to users not using a
directory protocol (e.g., in a mail message), there is a need to have 
a user-oriented string representation of distinguished name. This 
specification defines a string format for representing names, which is
designed to give a clean representation of commonly used names, whilst
being able to represent any distinguished name.
