    Yes, I'm all for highlighting it on the PWG web site and even putting a
    reference to it in the MIB draft (if that's "allowed"). I agree the "Top
    25" was a valuable exercise. It's just the lack of usability in the
    current text format that I don't like.

    Generating that Top 25 table turned out to be the *only* way the group
    could narrow its focus to determine what was truly important with respect
    to alerts and associated usage scenarios, IMHO.

    I certainly understand how hard it is to put such a big table in such a
    small format, but this table should be retained *someplace* that everyone
    can access. How's about putting it on the PWG website in a
    well-advertised
    location?
