             Summary: Request official OID sub-arc assignment for Apache Knox 
from ASF INFRA
                 Key: KNOX-3346
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KNOX-3346
             Project: Apache Knox
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Server
            Reporter: Sandor Molnar
            Assignee: Larry McCay


While implementing a new custom LDAP control for the internal Knox LDAP server 
(see KNOX-1340), the need for an official Object Identifier (OID) was 
identified. 

Currently, the implementation is using a UUID-generated OID appended to the 
Apache Private Enterprise Number (PEN) 1.3.6.1.4.1.18060. While this ensures 
uniqueness, it is non-idiomatic for a top-level project and results in 
extremely long identifiers that are difficult to manage in configuration and 
CLI tools.

As discussed in the [PR 
review|https://github.com/apache/knox/pull/1258#discussion_r3394424270], we 
should secure an official sub-arc for the Knox project under the ASF PEN 
(18060) to provide a professional and permanent space for Knox-specific LDAP 
controls, attributes, and object classes.

{*}Proposed Action for PMC Chair:{*}{*}{*}

Please open an INFRA JIRA ticket to request the assignment of a dedicated OID 
sub-arc for the Apache Knox project under the root 1.3.6.1.4.1.18060.
