Summary of Defect:
Sub Volume 4 includes a Note describing ISO OID root assignments.
ISO have recently moved the material into another base standards document.
     
Doc 9705, Section 4.3.2.1 states:
<Start italics> Note 2.- ISO/IEC 8824-1 specifies the top of the 
hierarchical OID name space.  At the first level, provision is made for 
ISO, International Telecommunication Union - Telecommunication 
Standardisation Sector (ITU-T) and joint ISO/ITU-T sub-name spaces.  The 
ISO name space is further subdivided into:
     
   a)      standard (0)
     
   b)      registration-authority (1)
     
   c)      member-body (2)
     
   d) identified-organisation (3)

Assigned SME:               Sub volume IV SME (A. J. Kerr)
     
Proposed SARPs amendment:
Change ISO/IEC 8824-1 to ISO/IEC 9834-1 | ITU-T X.660.
     
SME Analysis:
This is just an editorial nicety, which affects only a non-essential 
external reference in a Note.  The ITU-T reference (X.660) should not be 
included, as Doc 9705 is based only on ISO/IEC standards.
CCB-9, Naples:  Resolved, without the ITU-T reference.  However, the Panel 
Secretary indicated that it would be useful to add the ITU-T Recommendation 
number as a Note.  This editorial change would affect a large number of 
existing ISO/IEC references in Doc 9705 SV1, and remains an open issue, 
outside the scope of this PDR.
     
Impact on Interoperability:     Zero.  Editorial change only.
