Yes.  The idea is to give the common and static parts of the current
DNS schemas, the attributes representing DNS record types, a common
home for others to fetch a updated schema with all the attributes
defined so far, to ensure naming, syntax and other attribute settings
stay the same.

Actually, I would suggest to only define the attributes in the file
distributed from Uninett, and leave the definition of the object
classes to thers, as the people defining dNSZone and dNSDomain2 seem
to change their definition over time as new dns record types are
defined.  This would make it possible for those defining the object
types to include the attribute schema for the attributes and a
different schema for the object classes, and users wanting to include
both object classes to do so without conflicts. :)

I guess the schema file name could be dnsattributes.schema or some
thing like that, and it should include a time stamp and URL to the
source of the latest version at the top of the file. :)

Great. :)
