The draft purports that this is that this MIB is one of several modular parts which combine to presumably provide comprehensive configuration and monitoring. If that modular approach can actually be pursued, we can finish this MIB as defined and then go to work on a writable one. I sort of doubt that approach will be technically effective but if someone can cite an example of another project done in this way, maybe I can get over my skepticism.
As or if the scope of this effort increases another complication that becomes stronger is the interaction with the small multitude of other 1588-related MIBs that have already been published. How does functionality overlap. Do we want to borrow good ideas from previous efforts. Do we want to try and unify all of this? In summary, I'm usually opposed to increasing scope but I question whether the originally defined scope was sufficiently useful. I was not involved at the outset of this effort so my understanding of the original development plan is limited.
