I suggest the following replacement text:

  The 'altServer' attribute lists URIs referring to alternative servers
  which may be contacted when this server becomes unavailable.  URIs for
  servers implementing the LDAP are written according to [LDAPURL].
  Other kinds of URIs may be provided.  If the server does not know of           
  any other servers which could be used this attribute will be absent.
  Clients may cache this information in case their preferred server later
  becomes unavailable.
