Add schema from RFC 2307

More and more, z/OS is moving into the Open environment and working with other Open platforms and software including Red Hat, Docker, and containers. This should be an incentive to include more schema attributes and object classes into ITDS z/OS LDAP which currently still only provides basic attributes and objectclasses in schema.user.ldif and schema.IBM.ldif.


RFC 2307 https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2307
includes many schema attributes and classes that are not found in z/OS LDAP but are common outside of z/OS. This is a request to incorporate them into z/OS LDAP.

    Is there already a new one opened as stated in the last comment or what is the state of this? It shows 'future considerations' but the last comment mentions a resubmit is required, that's confusing. Is there already a new one or is still still valid according to its state?

    This requirement is not currently in-plan, but will be considered as a potential candidate in a follow-on release.

    This item is unlikely to be given high enough priority to be placed into the product plan. If you feel that this requirement is needed, please resubmit or create a new updated request.
