XML Cover Pages: DSML

Cover Pages: Directory Services Markup Language (DSML) Directory Services Markup Language (DSML) OASIS DSML TC Recommends Directory Services Markup Language Version 2 as OASIS Standard. (Co-Chair, OASIS Directory Sevices Technical Committee) contains the recommendation of the technical committee to OASIS in support of adopting the DSML Version 2 specification as an OASIS Standard. The goal of the DSML TC is to create an XML specification for marking up directory services information. The Directory Services Markup Language version 2.0 (DSMLv2) is "an XML application that provides a method for expressing directory queries, updates, and the results of these operations. Whereas DSML version 1 provides a means for representing directory contents XML documents, DSML version 2 with bindings such as the SOAP Request/Response Binding, allows for directories to be manipulated via XML. DSMLv2 focuses on extending the reach of LDAP directories. Therefore, as in DSMLv1, the design approach is not to abstract the capabilities of LDAP directories as they exist today, but instead to faithfully represent LDAP directories in XML. The difference is that DSMLv1 represented the state of a directory while DSMLv2 represents the operations that an LDAP directory can perform and the results of such operations. Therefore the design approach for DSMLv2 is to express LDAP requests and responses as XML document fragments." [
