eap Mailing List: Re: Re: EAP MIB

[Jari Arkko (jari.arkko]

This would indeed be desirable. Perhaps a bit smaller priority
though than getting the key management document(s) completed,
or getting to a better situation with EAP methods. But I've
found that for some reason its typically slightly different set
of people who work on MIBs than who work on other things, so
it seems likely that we could progress on both, assuming there
is someone who is interested to work on the MIB. Are you Carl
volunteering?
