en fait ça c'est la FAQ de DSMLv1, qui avait pour objectif de décrire la structure d'une annuaire via XML
avec DSMLv2 ils ont changé d'objectif, pour décrire les requêtes et les réponses, et donc le protocole LDAP
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."

c'est pas très clair mais bon... je le comprends comme ça :)
quant à dsml.org il a été volé :-/
c'est assez hallucinant d'ailleurs, à ce niveau là, de se faire voler un nom de domaine
