Oops, slipped thru the cracks. Then I recommend revising those two choices in the ASN.1 in 2251bis (ala Steven's suggestion) to:

Filter ::= CHOICE {
      and   [0] SET SIZE (1..MAX) OF Filter
      or    [1] SET SIZE (1..MAX) OF Filter
      <...no other changes...> }

If there are no objections, I will make this change to the next version of the protocol doc.

Thanks. Jim
