documents relevant for the upcoming SMIng meeting

[Juergen Schoenwaelder <schoenw@ibr.cs.tu-bs.de>]

The documents for the SMIng WG meetings in San Diego have just been
announced. I do not expect that an announcement will be send
automatically to this list since the documents are still NMRG
documents. So here is the relevant information (title, URL, abstract):

- SMIng - Next Generation Structure of Management Information
  http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-irtf-nmrg-sming-04.txt

  This memo presents an object-oriented data definition language for
  the specification of various kinds of management information. It is
  independent of management protocols and applications. Protocol
  mappings are defined as extensions to this language in separate
  memos. The language builds on experiences gained with the SMIv2 and
  its derivate SPPI. It is expected that the language presented in
  this memo along with its protocol mappings will replace the SMIv2
  and the SPPI in the long term.

- SMIng Core Modules
  http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-irtf-nmrg-sming-modules-01.txt

  This memo presents an SMIng module that introduces core data types
  such as counters, date and time related types, and various string
  types. These definitions build on RFC 2578 and RFC 2579.

- SMIng Internet Core Modules
  http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-irtf-nmrg-sming-inet-modules-01.txt

  This memo presents SMIng modules that introduce commonly used
  Internet Protocol specific data definitions.  They are provided so
  that other SMIng modules that would otherwise define their own
  representations can import them from a common place.

- SMIng Mappings to SNMP
  http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-irtf-nmrg-sming-snmp-01.txt

  This memo presents an SMIng language extension that supports the
  mapping of SMIng definitions of identities, classes, and their
  attributes and events to dedicated definitions of nodes, scalar
  objects, tables and columnar objects, and notifications for
  application in the SNMP management framework.
