Another change I do not remember from the list: The SIZE (1..MAX) was
removed from the ASN.1 grammar (though the textual description still
requires at least one component).  Why?


I don't remember if it has been discussed on the list, but one reason
for the change is in anticipation of Kurt's true/false search filters
draft becoming a proposed standard. If the SIZE constraint isn't there
then there is no need to revise the ASN.1 for LDAP (and it is one less
thing I need to fiddle for XLDAP).
