[Moims-dai] My latest attempt at OAIS Section 6 (SC#135)

I raised the issue of the OO-IO document because anyone seeking further
information about OO-IO will look for the document. By incorporating OO-IO
terminology into ISO 14721 we are tacitly endorsing OO-IO. I wanted to make
sure the members of the WG are comfortable with that.

I have attached a copy of John's document with a few comments.
