RFC2253bis: "a published table"

RFC2253, 2.3 states:
  If the AttributeType is in a published table of attribute types
  associated with LDAP [4 (RFC2252)]....

What "published table" is being referred to?  There is no table
in RFC2252 nor does the sentence appear to refer to the table
within the section.  So, I assume it is returning to published
subschema information.  But which subschema controlling
information?  If the server holds multiple naming contexts,
each with differing controlling subschemas, how does the client
obtain it... and wouldn't this require a DN!  Should the client
be required access to schema to construct a DN?

One reasonable alternative would be replace above with:
  If the AttributeType is a Standard Track attribute type
  [RFC2252,RFC2256]...
