member-of-group user attr + group/member object classes?

Is there a published schema with a member-of-group user attribute
(i.e. an attribute maintained by the user), with a associated auxiliary
member object class and preferably structural group object class?

Not Microsoft's memberOf attribute - that is maintained by the server.

I found
  http://middleware.internet2.edu/dir/docs/internet2-mace-dir-ldap-group-membership-200507.html
with object class eduMember ( ... MAY ( isMemberOf $ hasMember ) )
but it seems silly to have eduMember as the group's object class.

I don't know any.

But it might be a good idea to revisit the thread on ietf-ldapext 
mailing list
starting with subject "groupOfEntries object class proposal",
continuing as "Nested group" and
ending in "Summary of group discussion".

IMHO Steven Legg came up with a good idea (see his posting from that 
discussion below).

Ciao, Michael.
