If I get this right you are not discussion how to implement new features but how to design this top-level-MIB-stuff, right? > don't run away until after submitting your patch. :-) Those two dozens lines of C-code I hacked into hr_swrun.c/HOT_RESOURCES_MIB do not seem to have a chance to make it into any release, as far as I understood the political issues you are mentioning ... ;-) > I would rather have separate HostRes extensions from several people than have > to wait around ... Fine ... :-) So as I'm new on this project and simply cannot oversee each and all organizational side effects and I'm willing to code and test I'd appreciate it very much if one of you could point me to an approach, which would be worth the efforts of also coding the "administrative frame-work",so that the results will then make it into the official release.
