Alfred:
This is a result of the name change from CCITT to ITU-T. So,
different documents use different names depending on when they were
published. The bits on the wire are not impacted, so I have never
worried about it.

Folks / to whom it concerns,
during recent reviews of active I-Ds containing ASN.1 related
to the X.500 framework, I found that a couple of these do not
consistently employ the revised name of the top-level OID branch
joint-iso-itu-t(2) ,
but instead use the outdated/legacy name
joint-iso-ccitt(2) .
Some drafts use a mix of both names.
I suggest that the modern version joint-iso-itu-t(2) be used
consistently within all new drafts / draft versions, unless
intentionally and explicitely for historical evidence reference
has to be made to the old name.
Kind regards,
Alfred.
