[IPFIX] draft-ietf-ipfix-mib-variable-export-03

Dear IPFIX experts,

We've rewritten the IPFIX MIB export draft to use regular IPFIX option 
templates rather than extended field specifiers.

We'd appreciate your feedback whether this seems about right.

Also your feedback on two TBD issues in the text:

1. Should there be a single "mibObjectValue" IE, combined with a 
"mibObjectBaseSyntax" IE to define the type?
     Or, should there be multiple "value" IEs, one per RFC 2578 type 
(eg, mibObjectIntegerValue, mibObjectIpAddressValue, ...) ?

2. Should we consolidate the RFC 2578 ObjectSyntax with the RFC5610 / 
[IANA- DATATYPES] types?

Thanks,
Paul and Colin.

Abstract:
    This document specifies a way to complement IPFIX Data Records with
    Management Information Base (MIB) objects, avoiding the need to
    define new IPFIX Information Elements for existing Management
    Information Base objects that are already fully specified.

    An IPFIX Option Template and method are specified, which are used to
    export the extra information required to fully describe Simple
    Network Management Protocol (SNMP) MIB Objects.
