  2. The document defines new object identifiers like
     id-ct-KP-aKeyPackage and AsymmetricKeyPackageModuleV1.
     Where is the list of these identifiers kept and how do you
     update this list in order to guarantee the uniqueness of these
     identifiers.

For the first identifier mentioned above, it looks like it is in an
OID branch delegated to and managed by NIST.


Many other OIDs used in PKIX and S/MIME documents are drawn from
the OID branch delegated to the PKIX WG and maintained (AFAIK)
by Russ Housley at <http://www.imc.org/ietf-pkix/pkix-oid.asn> .

That page says:
    -- If you need an OID assigned, please send mail to
       ietf-pkix-oid-reg(_at_)imc(_dot_)org(_dot_)

Unfortunately, during the re-homing of the PKIX WG's mailing list
from IMC.ORG to IETF.ORG, the previously highly visible link to this
repository has been lost last year.

Is there a similar list for CMS/SMIME OIDs, or is the whole CMS/SMIME
tree still maintained by RSA ?


I'd wish that some of the IETF tools pages related to the PKIX and
S/MIME WGs be amended with a link to the related OID table(s),
and that IANA also amends the /protocols/ page with a link to
these OID branches, with unambiguous title, e.g.:
  "PKIX Object Identifiers (delegated to PKIX WG)"
etc.


Kind regards,
  Alfred Hönes.
