I'm looking for a concise and readable tutorial on ASN.1 that I may share with
colleagues who are not familiar with ASN.1 or OSI.  We are considering the use of
ASN.1 independently of OSI, so the less the tutorial relies upon OSI constructs
and terminology the better.  If someone has written something, have it on-line,
and are willing to share it, that would be optimal.  I am familiar with Marshall
Rose's "The Open Book", I am aware of a book by Steedman, but haven't seen it
yet, and have read Tannanbaum's section on ASN.1.  Nothing I've seen so far is
quite what I'm looking for.  The audiance is smart and computer literate, but
only some are from the computer industry.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The Steedman book is:

ASN.1 The Tutorial and Reference, by Douglas Steedman, published by
Technology Appraisals, Grove House, 551 London Road, Isleworth,
Middlesex TW7 4DS, United Kingdom. 
Phone +44-81-744 1155. 
Fax +44-81-744 1149.
ISBN 1 871802 06 7.

It is good, and differentiates well between ASN.1 and other OSI
concepts. The price is rather steep, here in Sweden we have to
pay about $ 150 for a copy of the book.
