Hi,

The design team met for several hours in Dallas.
I will be producing an initial draft based on those discussions.
I will send meeting notes to the WG mailing list first.

We most focused on how to adapt the existing ENTITY MIB modules,
not on missing data that I2RS needs beyond the adapted MIB modules.
