Re: [Gen-art] Genart last call review of draft-ietf-ippm-metric-registry-20

Hi Al,
I saw that IANA was consulted during the work.
I was wondering what will be the actual text that will be written in the IANA registry, I expected section 10 to describe it.

Registration Procedure(s)
Reference
Note

I am not sure yet what is the Registration Procedure and what will be written in the Note

Thanks
Roni

I understand that perspective. In early review with IANA we decided on Expert Review partly because two elements of registry entries require references to immutable documents, such as standards specifications.
So the requirement for specifications could be seen as built-in.
But we may change to Specification Required now, the last IANA review is in-progress.

[acm]
Yes, a few of those slipped through, thanks.

[acm]
it's fairly easy for new implementers to pick-up an IPPM RFC (even a STD) and choose parameters that meet their needs. But for the additional advantage of measurement comparisons, more context is needed. Some may even ask why this registry requires the many details. Answer: See section 6.
A little history is good. Very few have been joining IPPM sessions long enough to know this history.

[acm] ok

[acm]
I have said on a few occasions that almost the entire memo contains IANA Considerations. Nevertheless, we wrote and reviewed the memo and (then wrote) the separate IANA section with IANA's help.

I have implemented the agreed changes above in the working version.
Thanks again!
