Another approach would be to have two schema files, one which only contains the schema descriptions from RFC 4524 and one with the =

schema descriptions from RFC 1274 with the latter obviously being dependent on the former.
=20 I have one preliminary question for Kurt: since rfc4524 obsoletes =
rfc1274,
should those schema items that were not brought forward be marked as OBSOLETE?
obsoletes !=3D OBSOLETE, so no. That is, the meaning of the term = 'obsolete' is quite different in these two contexts.
The latter context the term is defined as follows: The OBSOLETE field, if present, indicates the element is not active.
For user application attribute types, whether the type is active or not = is, I think, best left to the schema administrator. (Update operations = upon an inactive element is limited to removal of the element.)
If yes, then all schema could fit in one file. I'd like a clear way to separate valid from obsolete schema. The obsolete items should be available for backwards compatibility. As an alternative, =
I'd
like to have a "slim" (without obsolete) and a complete version of the file.
I rather no element be specified in multiple files.
Could you please upload the file? Through the ITS attachments don't work too well. =20
