Therefore, you have to get someone owning an OBJID tree branch to define meanings for you - -- and you have to publish some worldwide book of mappings, etc.

While I am no big fan of OID's (and I really dislike ASN.1 -- and nobody ever explained to my why the ISO RPC standard doesn't use it), if anybody really needs an ISO OID tree, I will probably be willing to tear off a piece of OSF's: 1.3.22 { iso(1) identified-org(3) osf(22) }
