I'm looking for discussion of the problem more than the solution at this

considering the issues that have arisen already in respect of the

BTW, If you want to use OIDs in URIs there's already RFC 3061. The only
problem is with resolution since there is no OID database and proving
who has what is not a simple operation at all...
there are a couple of databases, such as http://www.alvestrand.no/objectid/
but they are NOT authoritative, WOEFULLY incomplete, and you are generally
lucky if you find what you are looking for.
it would be fun :-) to populate the oid.urn.arpa zone with data from here -
but not particularly useful, I think.
