reassign 498475 snmp-mibs-downloader thanks Hi Marco,
Indeed, I work next door to a major internet exchange and downloading everything with snmp-mibs-downloader was still unacceptably slow. It is also a very bad practice to distribute a package which will automatically download files from web sites of third parties, both because they could become unreachable over the life of the package and because the people managing them may not like the additional traffic.
I'm thinking about including an archive containing the RFCs required to extract the MIBs to the downloader package and leave it optional to the user to update the IANA MIBs to the newest ones from the Internet.
