RE: [dhcwg] Conflicting information regarding DHCP options 82 and 83.

["Bernie Volz (EUD)" <[e-mail]>]

Thomas:

We are already working with IANA. They are willing to update the
options list with the specific references to RFCs (as I have
provided them). (As well as correct a few minor errors spotted
by Ted and IANA themselves.)

They will deassign the old options once Ralph works this through
the IETF/DHC WG to assure that there are no objections.

The IANA web pages are not necessarily organized ideally. I'm sure
they'd welcome specific suggestions on how to make them better or to
have more specific information to include. For example, a number of
options don't point to an RFC or other document. If folks could fill
in that info, getting it up on the web page would be good.

Process wise, having Ralph provide a list to IANA that has been
reviewed by the WG would be great. (This goes for suggestions on
retiring old options as well.)

Look at the list below. Can folks fill in pointers to where the option
is documented  there is none now:
