Dear Directory Developers, Thanks for all the feedback in the ML and IRC regarding my initial draft for the LDAP diagnostic tool plugin to Apache Directory Studio in GSoC 2010. I have come up with a newer version of the document with the changes you have mentioned. Specifically, I have elaborated about the use cases of it as a debugging tool, implementation details about the architecture (with a diagram) etc. and changed the references to newer versions of RFCs
