Subject: Re: Another AT MIB+!

Here is a thought that I had last night.  I passed it on to the people
at Apple, but maybe I should have cc'd the mailing list.

I think that for now we should not add an onHold enum.  During the next
six months, while the MIB is (hopefully!) sitting around as a Proposed
Standard RFC and trying to be implemented, people can do implementations
of the zone changing proposal and work out the details.  Hopefully the
MIB will be ready to move to Draft Standard around the time the zone
changing algorithm has been worked out to everyone's satisfaction.  When
it moves from Proposed to Draft, the onHold enum (or whatever is decided
upon) could be added.  Changes based on implementation experience are
encouraged.  Perhaps the zone changing MIB will be ready then too, which
would make the enum addition even more relevant.

After seeing comments by Bob and Phil today, I am even more in favor of
waiting to see what's right, rather than trying to guess now.
