Welcome to the Schema Registry Project

Goals

• to set up a LDAP schema registry
  • with an easy browsable and searchable Web interface
  • as well as an interface based on MIME types defined in RFC 2927 for sumissions of new schema
• to define a policy defining the standards for includion into the registry
• to search for all schema definitions made in Standard bodies like the IETF, DMTF, etc. and include them into the registry
• to develop a business model to keep the registry alive after the end of the project.
