RE: FW: bridgemib wg

All these documents are pretty well completed. Mainly they need to be
modified to meet submission requirements, such as updating boilerplate
text and references. We need editors to finalize the documents.

I can get you access to the 802.1 documents if you're willing to do a
review of the mib against the functionality. It would probably be best
if somebody from 802.1 actually did the comparison against the current
802.1 specs, but we'd be happy to have you do it.

Thanks,
dbh

It is unclear to me what remains to be done on these documents. The
SMIv2 version of the bridge mib seems to be pretty much done. If you
just need a review, I am willing to read the SMIv2 bridge mib against
RFC 1493. I do not have 802.1 specs and can't help on that front.
