hello coders@,

First let me introduce myself. I'm [email protected] and the current
maintainer of OpenBSD's own snmp stack.

I would like to include UCD-DISKIO-MIB and it's dependency UCD-SNMP-MIB
into OpenBSD base and would like explicit permission before doing so.

My motivation for this is that in OpenBSD the name<->OID translations
are hardcoded in mib.h, which is limiting and error-prone in multiple
ways. To this end I've written (intial) SMIv2 support for snmpd(8)[0]
and would like to include the MIBs (partially) supported native by
OpenBSD's base system. Most of these are by IETF/IANA and to the best of
my knowledge can be included without any problems. However, OpenBSD also
partially supports the UCD-DISKIO-MIB metrics, of which I'm not sure.

Thanks in advance.

Sincerely,

Martijn van Duren
