I think the sentiment was that "RSA" was the obvious right
choice for the OID and that it was only some sense of accommodation
for existing implementations that prompted inclusion of
"RSAEncryption" as an acceptable alternative on incoming certificates.
Perhaps I misunderstood the sentiment of the WG. Would anyone else
who attended care to comment?
Hmmm. I got this one backwards! I thought we had agreed that the
RSAEncryption OID (the one from PKCS) was the preferred one to send but
that the "RSA" OID (Annex G.) would be acceptable on incoming
certificates.
