After reading the books at http://www.oss.com/asn1/booksintro.html I am
still confused about the impact of the "ANY DEFINED BY" as used in sec
4.1.2.4 of rfc 3280

Name ::= CHOICE {
     RDNSequence }

   RDNSequence ::= SEQUENCE OF RelativeDistinguishedName

   RelativeDistinguishedName ::=
     SET OF AttributeTypeAndValue

   AttributeTypeAndValue ::= SEQUENCE {
     type     AttributeType,
     value    AttributeValue }

   AttributeType ::= OBJECT IDENTIFIER

   AttributeValue ::= ANY DEFINED BY AttributeType


Does it just mean ANY, but scoped by the language of a given OID text?

Ps, thanks to Conrad for the help.
