At this stage, interest is gauged by implementation reports
and discussion.  If you'd like this work to be able to advance,
submitting a report on your implementation would help.
(Please note the attached message from over three months ago!)
When there are no implementation reports, even from groups
that were its biggest proponents and who have probably implemented
it, claims that the MIB module is "good and useful" ring hollow.
RFC 2026 section 4.1.2 is quite clear on what needs to happen before
this work can advance.

Hi -

Two months have passed, and I haven't seen a single response.
Suggestions?
