        The String Representation of Standard Attribute Syntaxes
	T. Howes
	S.E. Hardcastle-Kille
	W. Yeong
        April 1992
	Abstract:
The lightweight directory protocols require that the contents of Attri-
buteValue fields in protocol elements be octet strings.  This document
defines the requirements that must be satisfied by encoding rules used
to render Directory attribute syntaxes into a form suitable for use in
the lightweight directory protocols, then goes on to define the encoding
rules for the standard set of attribute syntaxes defined in [1,2] and
[3].
