CURRENT_MEETING_REPORT_ Reported by Oscar Newkerk/DEC MSI Minutes Minutes of the Management Services API Working Group at the Atlanta meeting of the IETF. The first item discussed at the meeting was the motion to dissolve the Working Group. The reason given for this motion was that the solution that we had been developing would require changes in areas outside of the Group's original Charter. These areas would include a general database/method of mapping any IETF defined MIB to both the SNMP SMI and the ISO SMI, and a general object naming scheme that would allow for the mapping of ISO Distinguished Names to and from SNMP variables. The group voted unanimously to disband the Working Group and to allow the MSI API draft document to be purged from the internet-drafts directories when they expire. The next item discussed was a proposal from the mailing list that the Working Group reform or reconstitute itself to produce a standard API for SNMP applications. It was suggested by the Chair that this should be addressed by the normal process of forming a Working Group. If there is interest in this activity, then the Area Director, James Davin, should be approached with a proposed Charter.
