Very cool.  I think it might be a better idea to move the
centralized list to the handbook, since hypertext is a better
medium for a list that will potentially be very long and contain
many cross-references.  Short descriptions next to MIBs would be
nice.  Also, sorting first by category and then by alphabetical
order might be more helpful.
