Character MIB (charmib) ----------------------- Charter Last Modified: 1994-07-21 Current Status: Concluded Working Group Chair(s): Bob Stewart Network Management Area Director(s): Deirdre Kostick Network Management Area Advisor: Deirdre Kostick Mailing Lists: General Discussion:char-mib@decwrl.dec.com To Subscribe: char-mib-request@decwrl.dec.com Archive: Description of Working Group: The Character MIB Working Group is chartered to prepare a recommendation to the IESG evaluating RFCs 1316-1318 (the Character MIBs) with respect to the standards track. The recommendation will document implementation, interoperability, and deployment experience. If these experiences suggest that changes should be made to the documents, new drafts may be prepared. The recommendation will report one of four outcomes for each RFC: - That the RFC should be advanced from Proposed to Draft Standard status, without changes (if no problems are found); - That a draft prepared by the working group should replace the RFC, and be designated a Draft Standard (if only minor changes are made); - That a draft prepared by the working group should replace the RFC, and be designated a Proposed Standard (if major changes or feature enhancements are made); or, - That the RFC should be designated as Historic (if this technology is problematic). Goals and Milestones: Done Discussion and final approval of Charter; discussion on models and terminology. Make writing assignments. Done Mailing list discussion of Charter and collection of concerns. Done First draft document, discussion, additional drafts, special meeting? Done Review latest draft and if OK, give to IESG for publication as RFC. Done Reactivation of Working Group to prepare the Character MIBs for Draft Standard. JUN 93 Post an Internet-Draft with the results of the survey of implementation and operational experiences with the Character MIBs. Post revised MIB documents if necessary. AUG 93 Submit the Character MIBs to the IESG for consideration as Draft Standards. Internet-Drafts: No Current Internet-Drafts.
