TITLE: K_2 of rings of algebraic integers
QUESTION [14 upvotes]: Let $R$ be the ring of integers in an algebraic number field.  There are beautiful descriptions of $K_0(R)$ and $K_1(R)$.  Namely, $\tilde{K}_0(R)$ is the class group of $R$ and $K_1(R)$ is the group of units of $R$.  Question : Is there a nice description of $K_2(R)$ (or at least some reasonable conjectures)?  I couldn't find much about this in Milnor's or Rosenberg's books on algebraic K-theory, so I expect that the answer is pretty complicated.  Is it maybe at least known in some special cases (say, for $R$ the integers in a quadratic extension of $\mathbb{Q}$)?

REPLY [4 votes]: I think Kolster's survey is a good introduction to questions related to 
arithmetic interpretations of higher K-groups.
