Suggested doc patch
Hello,
The ppolicy section of the Admin Guide does not say why the "people" object
class is present in the example policy entry.
I suggest that the docs explain.  Otherwise the reader is left wondering why
the particular choice of structural object class was made.  The less informed
reader is left wondering why a second object class is required at all.
I also suggest that instead of the "people" object class,
that the applicationProcess object class be used in the example to provide the
structural object class the entry requires.
The slapo-ppolicy man page might also provide guidance.
Attached is a suggested patch, provided so that you have something to work
from.  If you're not happy with the patch go ahead and discard it, I'm not
advocating
any particular wording.
I, Karl O. Pinc, hereby place the following modifications to OpenLDAP
Software (and only these modifications) into the public domain. Hence, these
modifications may be freely used and/or redistributed for any purpose with or
