Hi Robert,

I am co-editing the MIB and was the person that originally put most of
the MIB into SMI form.  Major flaws in the original MIB design are going
to be mostly due to me.  My SNMP background is much greater than my
routing knowledge, and I'm sure it shows (not shockingly, no network
operator experience).  I expected and hoped to get feedback on what was
wrong with the MIB and how it could be improved.

I do look at WG at adoption criteria differently.  I can see your point
of view.  But I generally look on adoption as whether a document/MIB is
useful, and appropriate for a particular WG and not whether the first
version of the doc/MIB is ready, with just minor adjustment, to be coded
and used.

But regardless of WG adoption, I am curious whether you think these MIBs
would be useful to have, not in the current state, but in a closer to
ideal state?

And please give as much feedback as you can,

Thanks,
Mike
