 Abstract
 
-   This memo presents an SMIng module that introduces core data types
-   such as counters, date and time related types, and various string
-   types.
+   SMIng (Structure of Management Information, Next Generation)
+   [RFCxxx1] is a protocol-independent data definition language for
+   management information.  This memo presents an SMIng module which
+   defines a set of derived types for common purposes such as counters,
+   date and time related types, and various string types.

 1. Introduction
 
-   Most SMIng [SMIng] modules are built on top of some core definitions
-   of commonly used data types.  These core type definitions are
-   contained in the NMRG-SMING module which is contained in this memo.
-   Its data types are generally applicable for modelling all areas of
-   management information.  Among these types are counter types, string
-   types and date and time related types.
