FYI and possible comments.
Pls let me know if you feel we (IETF) need to do something because of this.
I am not sure how far the IETF will go here. I do see this work equal
to the concept of we open a new WG for a specific MIB. This case the
SMART-CARD-MIB.
A personally, see a bigger need for mappings of managed
objects defined for SNMP (as MIBs) and Device Management of OMA.
I already have seen some questions on a SyncML malinglist
regarding the 'standardization' of managed objects for Device
Managment in the OMA perspective. I guess the IETF could assist
there by specifying something similar as we use for managed objects
of MIB modules, standardized objects and vendor specific ones
(where each vendor has a branch).
I started some time ago an internet-draft for this, but due to
lack of time I did not finish it yet to a decent state of
publication.
The way to get access to the managed objects I see more as
specific for the environment.

Subject: [New-work] OMA New Work - 1 New Work Item Approved
Dear All,
OMA would like to inform all the organisations subscribed to the IETF new-work list of the approval of 1 new work item:
1 Device Management Smartcard WI:
http://www.openmobilealliance.org/ftp/Public_documents/TP/Permanent_documents/OMA-WID_0126-DM_SC-V1_0-20051108-A.zip
The primary objective of the Device Management Working Group is to specify protocols and mechanisms to manage distributed mobile wireless devices, in order to optimise subscriber's experience, reduce the network operating costs and create new business opportunities.
The DM group has decided that several requirements (functionalities) unfulfilled in DM enabler 1.2, and also new ones, would not be dealt by a later DM enabler release, but likely in new enablers that would refer to and interoperate in a consistent manner with DM 1.2. Concerning the Smart Card functionalities, it was agreed to have a new work item dealing with them. The main Smart Card functionalities to be covered by this WI are (but not limited to):
. Defining a secure dynamic provisioning of Management Objects available on the Smart Card;
. definition and description of Smart Card Management Objects;
. Security extension for DM enablers using Smart Cards.
. Secure management of Management Objects (including private and sensitive data) in the Smart Card. It would include: MO's update in the SC over-the-air, MO's update in the DM-client and synchronization with the SC, new MO's storage in the SC after manufacturing, etc.
This work item has been allocated to the OMA DM (Device Management WG) for specification development.
Best regards,
Victoria Gray on behalf of OMA.
