Re: [6lo] Command frame ITU-T distribution details

My understanding is that this is for a sub-table underneath the table that is "specification required".   Also there are reserved bits all over the place in https://www.iana.org/assignments/_6lowpan-parameters/_6lowpan-parameters.xhtml .   A specification of "for future use" seems to be acceptable.

Thanks,

If you recall, I pointed out in the session that the IANA registry is listed as "Specification Required", which means a designated expert needs to validate the request for codepoints.  If there is not an ITU-T spec listing values, you can't hand them out.
