Abstract
This document describes an application layer client-server protocol
for the provisioning and management of objects stored in a shared
central repository. Specified in XML, the protocol defines generic
object management operations and an extensible framework that maps
protocol operations to objects. This document includes a protocol
specification, an object mapping template, and an XML media type
registration. This document obsoletes RFC 3730.
