So, there's

http://cwiki.apache.org/DIRxPMGT/oid-assignment-scheme.html

but it is contradictory:

under "Assignment Scheme For Apache Directory"

Branch Assignments      Assign To
1.3.6.1.4.1.18060.0.0   ApacheDS
1.3.6.1.4.1.18060.0.1   Triplesec

However this seems a bit too much. Splitting the OID for just two different projects is not worth it and plus a TLP is not supposed to get so many projects underneath it. Rather than doing this we're going to assign branches for specific needs under the TLP. Here's how we did it instead.
Branch Assignments      Assign To
1.3.6.1.4.1.18060.0.0   ApacheDS LDAP Controls
1.3.6.1.4.1.18060.0.1   ApacheDS LDAP Extended Operations


These can't both be right...

A bit lower down there's something that might be a clue...
 1.3.6.1.4.1.18060.0.4.0         ApacheDS LDAP Meta Schema
1.3.6.1.4.1.18060.0.4.1         ApacheDS LDAP Apache Schema
1.3.6.1.4.1.18060.0.4.2         ApacheDS LDAP Apache DNS Schema
1.3.6.1.4.1.18060.0.4.3         Apache Directory Documentation Examples Schema
1.3.6.1.4.1.18060.0.4.4         Quartz Schema
1.3.6.1.4.1.18060.0.4.5         Bean Schema

so
1.3.6.1.4.1.18060.0.4.6         Triplesec Schema

seems reasonable.

elecharny suggested on IRC that 1.3.6.1.4.1.18060.5 might be a good choice also. I think this would imply that triplesec was not a subproject of apacheds ldap but a peer.

I don't know enough to lean one way or another but I'd really appreciate it if those who do could come up with a decision pretty soon and document it on the wiki page I've been quoting. In my triplesec branch I've been using 1.3.6.1.4.1.18060.0.4.6
