Personally, I don't care about "politically" correct, I'm simply trying to
be correct.

I think a standards track RFC will carry the IETF copyright meaning the
IETF is ultimately responsible for "change control" and would (presumably)
desire not to have OIDs managed and maintained by a private enterprise.

Granted, there's not a lot of dynamics available that could inadvertently
"hose" an assigned OID subtree... no matter where it lies.

All we are doing is making IETF more politically correct, and thus making
politics slow down the technical process...  Are we going to go through
several version of the draft arguing over this???

Let's just choose one and move on...    It will not impact the sales of
any
products nor the operation of any protocol...

Bruce,

It is politically incorrect. We had objections raised in IET47 on this.

What's wrong with continuing to use the one from Sun?  As long as it is
unambiguous, who cares?
