    Description ( 
       "The Role object class is used to represent a position or set "
       "of responsibilities within an organization, organizational "
       "unit or other scope, and MAY be filled by a person or persons "
       "(or non-human entities represented by ManagedSystemElement "
       "subclasses) - i.e., the \'role occupants\'. The latter MAY be "
       "explicitly associated to a Role, by associating Identities "
       "using MemberOfCollection. The \'position or set of "
       "responsibilities\' of a Role are represented as a set of "
       "rights defined by instances of the Privilege class, and are "
       "also associated to the Role via MemberOfCollection. If "
       "Identities are not explicitly associated, instances of "
       "AuthorizationRule MUST be associated with a Role using "
       "AuthorizationRuleAppliesToRole. The rule defines how subject "
       "entities are authorized for a Role and to which target "
       "entities the Role applies. \n"

       "The Role 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 properties are a subset of a related class, "
       "OtherRoleInformation, which defines all the group properties "
       "and uses arrays for directory compatibility." )]
