[ApacheDS] Draft specification for shutdown

[Alex Karasulu <ao...@bellsouth.net>]

Tonight I got this new idea for an extended operation that makes 
shutting down the server for scheduled maintenance really easy.  I wrote 
a quick draft to be submitted to the IETF.  I'm requesting for comments 
on it now ;).

Any thoughts or comments?

After a conversation with Emmanuel I might add a feature to shutdown the 
server after a certain amount of time like the way UNIX shutdown works.  
But give notification of the imminent shutdown at intervals.  Thanks 
Emmanuel!
