Looks good now. One thing (I should have seen yesterday too)
is that you need to move a few informative refrences to 
the normative references and vice versa

- I think RFC3410 is informative (it is also an informational
  RFC).

- RFC2863 and RFC2864 are normative, because we IMPORT from those.

- Since we use them in REFERENCE clauses or we use profiles
  from (as listed in DESCRIPTION clauses), I think that also
  ANFP< but certainly 991.2 and 992.1 are normative, no?

- Since we state:
   3.4.  Relation to Ethernet-Like and MAU MIB modules

   The implementation of EtherLike-MIB [RFC3635] and MAU-MIB
   [I-D.ietf-hubmib-rfc3636bis] is REQUIRED for the EFMCu interfaces.

  We probably also better make RFC3635 a normative ref.

With that I think we would be ready.

Further, I would like to react to a few of Ed's rebuttals:

My appology, the error is in RFC2864, not in the EFM-CU-MIB.

Your argument for consistency with ifCapStackStatus makes sense.
And as I said, I am not hung up on it.
So I am OK now.

Yep.

I think we made good progress.

Pls correct the references (as stated at the top of this email)
and then you can submit to internet-drafts as far as I am
concenrned.

Next step is then (another) W Last Call to givbe anyone a chance
to look at the latest changes.
