Formed in 2009, the Archive Team (not to be confused with the archive.org Archive-It Team) is a rogue archivist collective dedicated to saving copies of rapidly dying or deleted websites for the sake of history and digital heritage. The group is 100% composed of volunteers and interested parties, and has expanded into a large amount of related projects for saving online and digital history.
Description attribute (AD Schema)
Contains the description to display for an object. This value is restricted as single-valued for backward compatibility in some cases but is allowed to be multi-valued in others. See Remarks.

Remarks
The description attribute is implemented as a multi-valued attribute in the schema for the cases where that is allowed. For an object that is not a SAM managed class, the description is multi-valued. For an attribute that is a SAM managed class, the description attribute is single-valued. SAM managed classes are for things like security principals so, if you have, for example, a container, or a class of your own, the schema will let you use multiple values. This behavior of the description attribute is for backward compatibility with earlier operating systems because the attribute existed in the SAM APIs before AD existed.
