I ftped it yesterday. I modified pkg/ldap/servers/slapd/schema_init.c
and the patch name is june-000914.patch.
Can you elaborate more about the specification, i.e. what kind of
format, where I put it, etc...
I also have a question about the oids. I selected 
1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.59 for the Float syntax.
Is it ok or should I select the oid that I have a control on?

Thank you.
