>          Key: DIREVE-183
>          URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIREVE-183
>      Project: Directory Server
>         Type: New Feature
>     Reporter: Enrique Rodriguez
>     Assignee: Alex Karasulu
>      Fix For: 0.9.3

> We need to implement the subentries RFC to get to the next level where we can introduce Administrative Areas for various aspects: authorization, schema, collective attributes, replication, etc.  Administrative Areas are defined by subentries.  
> RFC 3672 - Subentries in the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP)
> http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc3672.html
> Subtree Refinements
> http://wiki.apache.org/directory/SubtreeRefinements
> Alex started out by adding code to parse and represent a refinement so they can be handled by the server in the shared code base since this might be used by clients as well later to interpret subentry information.  The package location in SVN (not much there so don't get excited):
> http://svn.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/directory/shared/ldap/trunk/common/src/java/org/apache/ldap/common/subtree/
> o parser needs to be completed with these primitives
> o add internal representation or data structure for quickly looking up an entries inclusion set within subtrees for evaluating different aspects of administration
> o add subsystems using interceptors to handle aspects:
>   - authorization
>   - collective attributes
>   - schema
