[dev-disc] BOF in Minneapolis??

[CONGDON,PAUL (HP-Roseville,ex1)]

Dan is correct.  The expectation is that the LLDP MIB would be a superset
and could replace RFC 2922.  For those who have already implemented 2922
(however, I do not know of any implementations), they could still use LLDP
to populate it.
