       "intended to be conformant with an LDAP GroupOfNames, as "
       "defined by IETF RFC 2256. For other purposes, "
       "ConcreteCollection, or other subclasses of Collection, may be "
       "more appropriate. \n"
       "This class is defined so as to incorporate commonly-used LDAP "
       "attributes to permit implementations to easily derive this "
       "information from LDAP-accessible directories. This class's "

       "and in array form for directory compatibility."),
