Mircea,

I have to agree with Kurt here, especially since he played a key role in
developing the IANA practices for LDAP.  When we got the root OID for PCLS,
we definitely thought of it as belonging to the document.  If PCeLS were
just PCLSv2, we *might* (or might not) decide that it's "the same
document," and hence that it should continue registering OIDs under the
same root.  But if PCeLS really corresponds to PCIMe, then it's not PCLSv2:
it *extends* PCLS, rather than updating it.  By this reasoning, it's not
the same document as PCLS, and thus should get a new root OID from IANA.

Bob

Mircea,

I believe 1) (new OID) is the most appropriate option.
draft-ietf-policy-core requests an OID be assigned to
it for schema elements it specifies. It does not detail
considerations for how other documents my make sub-delegations,
hence other documents need to get their own delegation
from IANA.

Kurt
