This is a minor update but allows the term to be unambiguously named in

Gippo and Jonathan,</span></p>
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-Bottom:0px"><span style=" font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri"> </span></p>
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-Bottom:0px"><span style=" font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri">It
may come as no surprise that I think both of you are "right"
in some sense, but that the best path may lie in the middle of the two
positions that you have staked out.</span></p>
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-Bottom:0px"><span style=" font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri"> </span></p>
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-Bottom:0px"><span style=" font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri">I
think Gippo is "right" in that in most of our specs where we
have MIB specified we do not tend to make it be a formalized part of the
spec.</span></p>
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-Bottom:0px"><span style=" font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri"> </span></p>
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-Bottom:0px"><span style=" font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri">I
think that Jonathan is "right" in that some added formality would
make these MIB values be more easily interpreted and exchanged for interoperability.</span></p>
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-Bottom:0px"><span style=" font-size:12pt;font-family:Times New Roman"><br>
Where I differ from Gippo is that I think you could add more clarity in
how the MIB and its fields are defined without straying into the "this
is how you implement it" territory.  In fact, just using those
Tables 5-1 and 5-2 as examples, the only way to read that is that "transfer
frame length" is an integer with a range and that CRC is an enumerated
list that references specified, documented, algorithms.  In the case
of Table 5-2 it is even clearer that Transmission Mode is an enumerated
list, Baseband pulse shaping is a float, and that scrambling code, and
other fields, are integers.  That is what they state, either explicitly,
i.e. "List of integers", or implicitly, i.e. fractional numbers
with a decimal point.  Specifying these as a data type and value range
pair instead of the ambiguous "allowed values" is not implementation,
just clarity. <br>
Where I differ from Jonathan is that some of the interface detail specificity
that is possible with the EDS and DoT may be overkill for this purpose,
which is not necessarily thought of as an "interface".  It
may, as is pointed out in many specs that include a "MIB", just
be a list of the kinds of parameters that implementations may choose to
put into a table, or embed in code, in their implementations.  From
the PoV of the standard these may be treated as "implementation concerns".
 That means that there is not any "thou shall" language
about how to implement them.  But that doesn't mean that they aren't
important, nor does it mean that treating them a little more formally wouldn't
be a good thing. <br>
From the PoV of our users I will assert that knowing just exactly which
choices were made during the implementation of programs that are intended
to interoperate is essential.  It may not be a concern HOW they are
implemented, that is an implementation choice, but it certainly matters
THAT they are implemented and which options are available.  This is
something that could well be handled in a fully specified PICS that fills
out the PICS pro forma for two (or more) imp[lementations.  But that,
I will assert, would be made more simple if all of the data types and values
that might appear in a MIB were clearly identified, and in a way where
they are easy to document.  Use of the EDS / DoT is a documented method
for doing this, but so is use of the PICS pro forma, as long as the data
type and value ranges that are possible are clearly specified along with
the options that are actually implemented, <br>
I think a little more clarity in the specs that include MIBs would be a
benefit to everyone. <br>
Cheers, Peter <br>

The details you are asking are really pointing to the implementation and
