This document suggests an X.500 Directory Schema, or Naming
Architecture, for use in the COSINE and Internet X.500 pilots.  The
schema is independent of any specific implementation.  As well as
indicating support for the standard object classes and attributes, a
large number of generally useful object classes and attributes are
also defined.  An appendix to this document includes a machine
processable version of the schema.

This document also proposes a mechanism for allowing the schema to
evolve in line with emerging requirements.  Proformas to support this
process are included.

This RFC specifies a Proposed Standard Protocol for the Internet
community, and requests discussion and suggestions for improvements.
Please refer to the current edition of the "IAB Official Protocol
Standards" for the standardization state and status of this protocol.
