RE: "LDAP exchange" (was: Misuse of the term "association" in [Protocol])



I agree with this, and I'll probably suggest some minor changes to some
of Kurt's suggestions.

My vote is to drop "association".  It doesn't seem very useful to
define
a term which is only needed once, and apparently this is the only
place
in [Protocol] which does need it.  I do like the current wording
better
than Kurt's, but I also dislike to require readers to remember more
definitions than necessary.
