The IESG has approved the Internet-Draft 'IANA Charset MIB'

Technical Summary
This memo defines a portion of the Management Information Base (MIB)
for use with network management protocols in the Internet community.
This IANA Charset MIB is [intended to become] an IANA registry. In
particular, a single textual convention 'IANACharset' is defined that
may be used to specify charset labels in MIB objects. 'IANACharset'
was extracted from Printer MIB v2 (work-in-progress). 'IANACharset'
was originally defined (and mis-named) as 'CodedCharSet' in Printer
MIB v1 (RFC 1759). A tool has been written in C, that may be used by
IANA to regenerate this IANA Charset MIB, when future charsets are in
accordance with the IANA Charset Registration Procedures (RFC 2978).
