In my opinion we should proceed with the method that best maps reality, 
not which is fastest to implement.  It would be great to hear comments 
on both methods from various interested parties soon (and if its next 
week you are looking to implement, comments need to come *very* soon).

Any or all of the standard we choose can be implemented to start with, 
as long as everything is fully implemented in the end.  in my opinion 
keeping things 'similar' to the characteristic style (similar to 
utilization) is the fastest route to start with (both for getting 
comments on this list and for allowing service developers to get 
started).  No matter which method we choose it is imperative that 
extension be possible in the future (i.e. to the SNMP namespace, etc.).
