Hi,

I was looking at LdapDN.normalize() which takes another LdapDN and an OID to 
normalizer map.  Emmanuel these OID's are he OIDs of attributeTypes correct?

LdapDN.normalize( LdapDN dn, HashMap oids ) is supposed to get the dn  
parameter and return its normalized form

Also I created a new method in AttributeTypeRegistry called getNormalizerMapping(). The registry will manage and cache the normalizers for attributeTypes by accessing the equality match matching rule of the attributeType and getting it's normalizer. Then it will add the normalizer to the map by OID and by name.
I think I tried to do the same thing with a class named OIDContainer, somewhere in the code. It's initialzed only once, at startup. The OidContainer name is not really the best one :)

I implemented this method in the BootstrapAttributeTypeRegistry and the 
GlobalAttributeTypeRegistry and committed it in revision 411456 here:

http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=rev&revision=411456

Emmanuel we were talking about how and where from we can get this normalization 
map.  I think this is the best place to build it and manage it.  Because we can 
have the map updated by the registry when new attribute types are registered.

WDYT?
As far as we can modify the schema -which is not the case right now- , yes, we must manage this HashMap somwhere around the schema managment. But if we do that, we must synchronize the HashMap.
