I attended the two chassis MIB meetings last year, and I hoped it would be no problem to get the MIB out at the march meeting this year. Unfortunately, there seems to be much talk in the group at IETF meetings, but not much more. Furthermore, since I have seen the results (draft #1 and #2) of the last meeting, it seems to me that the MIB gets further and further away of what we talked about last year. Thus, I agree with Marshal at this point - I do not see any possible success for a meeting in Amsterdam. It would probably cause more talk, more changes and nothing else. For my feeling, the MIB got much too complicated in the meantime. Please remember what happened to the Ethernet MIB - it gets stripped more and more, and has now reached a point where it is very easy to implement it. Why should we do the same thing with the chassis MIB ? I strongly suggest to take the chassis MIB draft #0 and put it to the standards track, without more than syntactical changes, if this should be necessary. As far as I can see it, this would be the only way to keep the MIB alive, since all other drafts are much more incomplete. It also would be the only way to get a MIB that is really usable and implementable.
