> (A) Development of a BCP document that will provide

> that need to be covered in IETF documents, especially those 
> documents that include requirements and specification of new 
> protocols or protocol extensions.
> 
> (B) Templates and tools for Operations and Management Area Documents
> 
> (C) Maintenance and extensions of documents that define MIB 
> modules which were developped in working groups that have concluded.

> Goals and Milestones:
