I understand. Note however that we have not published any MIB definition
with that OID asignment. We have just used it as a hardcoded value, locally
in our SNMPv3 implementation. So, I believe, no significant harm has been
done. In spite of that, we will modify that internal assignment immediately.

We will do that.

You're welcome.
