   not a good match for IPFIX's type system
- The authors will produce a new version, taking account of all
   the feedback
- Benoit, Brian and Juergen will review that version

Next Steps for IPFIX
- The meeting discussed the various drafts that have been presented
  at IPFIX meetings over about the last 12 months. 
- Several of these can be AD-sponsored:

- Others need more work:
  Enterprise IEs
    draft-aitken-ipfix-equivalent-ies

    These offer two solutions to the problem of managing Enterprise
    IEs.  A single solution is needed.
