[glue-wg] Progress on LDAP schema

[Florido Paganelli]

Hi all,

As a follow up from June 3rd's meeting, I corrected the schema with the
requested changes. All the entities but Entity are of type STRUCTURAL now.

To ease Paul and Maria's work, I resend the new schema changes and  in
attachment:
   GLUE20.schema.20140603
   distro2.0rc5_diff_2.0rc7.changes

with a kind request of testing it with their latest software.

The complete version of the schema in the tarball can also be used
Shiraz and JP can integrate it into the LDAP realisation document. But
mind that I will change the version in the final content to put it in
the official git-hub (it is now 2.0rc7, I plan to change it to 2.0), so
we will need an additional
iteration.

The development schema is in my github:

  http://github.com/floridop/LDAPWIP

I will send a pull request to the OGF git-hub master repository when we
are sure this is final, and it will be publicly available on the
official OGF repository.

Cheers,
Florido
