Good suggestion.

I thought of that as I was preparing the revision.  However, I decided
against it for a couple of reasons:

  - The registrations should probably be updated to conform to the new
    format requirements, so that means the whole document needs
    updating.

  - The text at the beginning makes a couple of forward references to
    the registrations as examples.

  - It's probably better to have the revised document obsolete 3555
    rather than update it, and to do that the revision needs to
    provide the equivalent content.

                                                        -- Steve
