I guess I can forget about that option, as I see this in the MACE-Dir Attribute Profiles: "With two significant exceptions, the syntax rules defined by the SAML 2.0 X.500/LDAP attribute profile [SAML-X500] are to be applied [...] The first exception is that the XML attribute named Encoding defined by that profile is NOT specified for use with this profile." So I'll likely have to either to the same or only reference individual sections from [SAML-X500] in my own profile. -peter
