RE: Overlay Documentation

I wasn't clear: 
I said: "For example, the doc does not speak about query containment."
I meant: " does not speak about query containment regarding the result set."

I'm not quite sure what I should do, kinda it's a bug or a feature ?

For example, the doc does not speak about query containment. ( actually the
paper the docs points to does, however the syntax it's using is different
from the actual used one )


If I cash a query that has brings back "sn, cn, telephoneNumber, mail"
and make a new query asking only for "sn, cn"   ( other stuff remains the
same, obviously )
Should this be answered from the cache or not ?
Query containment should mean it comes from the cache, actually it's not
answerable ( info from the log file ). 
Is this a bug, or is this ok ? 

These are the things I miss in the admin guide. 
Again, I would volunteer to contribute to the documentation . . .

Reinhard

At this point any difference betwen the code and the doc must be a bug in
the code, because the doc looks right to me... Please point out the
inconsistencies in an ITS report.
