In reviewing the use of PDU in [Authmeth], it feels like the type of PDU (LDAP vs. TLS) is very obvious from the context in which it is used. This is the case in [Protocol] with one possible exception: section 4.14.3 Removal of TLS Layer has one point where it might make sense to s/PDU/LDAP PDU/ to ensure that there isn't any misunderstanding about the intent.

([TLS] does use it.) I had thought it was, from Protocol 4.1 (Common Elements): >This section describes the LDAPMessage envelope Protocol Data Unit >(PDU) format, as well as data type definitions, which are used in the >protocol operations. I suggest 4.1 is rewritten to clarify that, if anyone has a not too cumbersome wording. Also, [Protocol] and [Authmeth] should probably replace "PDU" with "LDAP PDU" in some places.
