#                      Collective Attributes in LDAP
#                 <draft-zeilenga-ldap-collective-04.txt>

# [ portions trimmed ]

#Abstract
#
#  X.500 collective attributes allow common characteristics to be shared
#  between collections of entries.  This document summarizes the X.500
#  information model for collective attributes and describes use of
#  collective attributes in LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol).
#  This document provides schema definitions for collective attributes
#  for use in LDAP.

#3. Collective Attribute Types
#
#  A userApplications attribute type can be defined to be COLLECTIVE
#  [RFC2252].  This indicates that the same attribute values will appear
#  in the entries of an entry collection subject to the use of the
#  collectiveExclusions attribute and other administrative controls.
#
#  Collective attribute types are commonly defined as subtypes of non-
#  collective attribute types.  By convention, collective attributes are
#  named by prefixing the name of their non-collective supertype with
#  "c-".  For example, the collective telephone attribute is named
#  c-TelephoneNumber after its non-collective supertype telephoneNumber.
#
#  Non-collective attributes types SHALL NOT subtype collective
#  attributes.
#
#  Collective attributes SHALL NOT be SINGLE-VALUED.  Collective
#  attribute types SHALL NOT appear in the attribute types of an object
#  class definition.
#
#  Operational attributes SHALL NOT be defined to be collective.
#
#  The remainder of section provides a summary of collective attributes
#  derived from those defined in [X.520].  Implementations of this
#  specification SHOULD support the following collective attributes and
#  MAY support additional collective attributes.
