A number of
different proposals have been put forward to address the work items on the
EOS WG charter. The proposals solve different problems around the work items
listed in the charter. The working group needs to come to consensus around
which problems that should be solved and which of the solutions below best
addresses those problems.
The proposals
that can be considered are:
1. Dave
Shield's Extended Capability Negotiation
www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-shield-eos-capabilities-00.txt
2. Wes
Hardaker's Object Oriented PDUs for SNMP
www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-hardaker-eos-oops-01.txt
(The -00 version is current and the -01 has been submitted as a
replacement.)
3. Glenn
Mansfield Keeni's Managed Object / Aggregation MIB modules
www.ietf.org/draft-glenn-mo-aggr-mib-01.txt
www.ietf.org/draft-glenn-mo-taggr-mib-00.txt
4. Dave
Perkins' Get Columns Operation
www.ietf.org/draft-perkins-eos-gc-00.txt
(Note: I have only seen the draft in an email on the EOS list, I
have assumed that it has been submitted as an ID.)
Which of
proposals 1, 2, 3 or 4 do you think that the WG should pursue to focus in on
the work items in the charter? Only one of the four solutions above will be
the focal point for moving forward, however ideas may be combined other
proposals.
I will
announce the summary of the consensus call one week from today (Monday,
September 23) *unless* there is still active discussion which would preclude
being able to make a reasonable decision at that time.
