For all the ASN.1 folks out there:
I'm in the midst of writing up the OID URN namespace document
(see http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-mealling-oid-urn-00.txt)
and it has come to my attention that none of the ASN.1 standards
define the dot-notation that we use in all sorts of RFCs. I'm specifically
referring to the practice of inserting dots in between each arc as in:
1.3.6.1.4.1
Is anyone aware if this is actually spelled out somewhere? I don't
have the newest ASN.1 docs in front of me so if the're in there
a page reference would be great.
