LDAP schema repository
After thinking a little longer about what I'm trying to do, implementing everything suggested at The Schema Registry project at http://www.daasi.de/services/SchemaReg/ looks like:
- Overkill, since this thing needs prototyping, not standardizing yet
- An inadequate solution, because my own motivation for having such a thing lies mainly in being able to generate accurate, exhaustive reference documentation for users
- A mostly pointless exercise, since those folks have already finished their work
Besides, ignorance is bliss. So at least I'll be happy while reinventing badly historical artifacts other people have done well. Only if I'm too lazy to read all their docs, however.
Their schema registry service confirms my feeling about the second item in my list, namely that they don't include the kind of reference documentation I want to generate from the schema respository.

Interesting blog, does this site get lots of activity or is it usually slow around here?

This site gets virtually no activity, except when some spam bot posts 30 comments advertising erection pills. I could be plotting terrorist Armageddon and no one would notice.
Fine with me. It's easier than keeping a diary.
