Hi, A point just came up about the representation of strings. In the GLUE 2 specification it seems we have no definition of the "string" type, which looks like an oversight (other than an implication in the placeholder section that strings may be UTF-8). In the GLUE 2 LDAP schema as currently implemented for EGEE, strings seem to be typed as IA5String as they were in glue 1, which is basically 7-bit ascii so special characters are not allowed. Should we be allowing UTF-8 strings? Stephen -- Scanned by iCritical.
