Description of Working Group:

     The OSI-DS group's mission is to enable building a global
     Directory Service based on X.500 and to facilitate its
     deployment on the Internet.  The primary focus is on developing
     agreements and technical specifications needed to make this
     happen.  The WG will not be directly concerned with piloting
     and service activities, but will liaise with such activities.

     The WG has a number of specific goals, listed below.  In
     addition, there are areas which the WG is likely to take on in
     future, but do not have specific timescales.  These include:
         - procedures for schema management
	 - upgrade to 1993 X.500
	 - relationship to security activities
	 - use of X.500 beyond White Pages services
	 - mechanisms to stimulate service activity

Goals and Milestones:



Nov 93	      Connectionless Lightweight Directory Access Protocol


Dec 93	      Update to RFC 1384 - guidelines for representing information
	      in the DIT.

Dec 93	      Set of RFCs to replace RFC 1274 on Internet Schema.


Jan 94        RFC defining a mechanism for representing IP addressing
              information in the DIT.

Jan 94	      Minor updates to RFC 1278 and 1279.


Mar 94	      RFC on representing document series in the DIT
	      
Ongoing	      Maintain a Schema for the OSI Directory on the Internet.
	      This is handled by a schema subgroup.   

Ongoing       Liaisons should be established as appropriate.  In
              particular:  RARE-NAP, OIW, CCITT/ISO IEC, North American
	      Directory Forum.
