But then why did we decide to use such an ugly mechanism to communicate parameters between BTS and BSC?  I mean, we are not trying to be compatible with any existing code (as non exists for that) and just want to have a nice way how OsmoBTS communicates data with OsmoBSC, keeping the existing principles and the spirit of TS 12.21 OML.  All the normal attributes of TS 12.21 managed objects are TLV encoded.  The most straight-forward way from my point of view would thus be to use that structure?  wouldn'y you agree?
