Ajay,

Acee and I discussed this. I would agree with you. Any OSPF-TE mib is
likely to be equally relevant to ISIS. I would prefer to not get into
specifying this here - if at all, the TEWG can specify (perhaps they
do already) the contents of the TED to be extracted into a MIB.

PS: I am cc'ing the list as well. Hope you don't mind.
