105  * @page internalVSmechname Internal names and mechanism names
106  * @section gssapi_api_INvsMN Name forms
107  *
108  * There are two forms of name in GSS-API, Internal form and
109  * Contiguous string ("flat") form. gss_export_name() and
110  * gss_import_name() can be used to convert between the two forms.
111  *
112  * - The contiguous string form is described by an oid specificing the
113  *   type and an octet string. A special form of the contiguous
114  *   string form is the exported name object. The exported name
115  *   defined for each mechanism, is something that can be stored and
116  *   complared later. The exported name is what should be used for
117  *   ACLs comparisons.
118  *
119  * - The Internal form
120  *
121  *   There is also special form of the Internal Name (IN), and that is
122  *   the Mechanism Name (MN). In the mechanism name all the generic
123  *   information is stripped of and only contain the information for
124  *   one mechanism.  In GSS-API some function return MN and some
125  *   require MN as input. Each of these function is marked up as such.
126  *
127  *
128  * Describe relationship between import_name, canonicalize_name,
129  * export_name and friends.
