Hi,

Having just run a couple of MIB modules through the RFC Editor including one
with an IANA module, I think that
http://trac.tools.ietf.org/area/ops/trac/wiki/mib-boilerplate should not include
advice about using the BSD license as modules appear to be considered as
compilable code.

Ciao,
Adrian
