Hi Nick, 

As you know, there are vendor-specific MIBs that satisfy the referenced
requirements. However, unless the IDR WG were to agree on one of the
vendor MIBs, it would likely take some time to standardize MIB extensions
to RFC 4273. Given that there is only so much energy in the WG, my opinion
is that the focus should now be on publishing the BGP and VPN YANG models.
However, I would not actively oppose work on IDR MIB extensions.

Thanks,
Acee
P.S. I knew I should have left this E-mail to the chairs ;^)
