Ersin Er updated DIRSERVER-801:
-------------------------------
Fix Version/s: 1.5.0
> Improve subtreeSpecification syntax (and functionality)
> -------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: DIRSERVER-801
> URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSERVER-801
> Project: Directory ApacheDS
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: core
> Reporter: Ersin Er
> Fix For: 1.5.0
>
>
> Although subtreeSpecification and the Administrative Model in general are
> really such great facilities, they need to be improved to meet today's
> directory deployment needs. The subtreeSpecification syntax as defined in
> RFC3672 allows entry selection based DIT geometry (base, minimum, maximum,
> chops) and object classes (like faculty, employee) which is called
> Refinements in X.500.
> Nowadays LDAP directories are no longer being designed in a deeply
> hierarchical manner. They are more flat and the organization is based on
> attribute values with dynamic filters/groups/roles. So we need to improve the
> subtreeSpecification syntax to allow regular LDAP filters to be able to
> select DIT portions/entries according to attribute values.
> The proposed extension schemes are discussed in the following cwiki page:
> http://cwiki.apache.org/DIRxSRVx11/administrative-model-extensions.html
