Subject: Draft on a proposal for an IANA reservation AS Numbers for documentati
	  on purposes

There have been calls of late to reserve a block of AS numbers for  
documentation purposes. This topic was raised as part of a policy  
proposal in the APNIC region. (echoing a similar call for an Ipv6  
documentation prefix some years ago that was subsequently undertaken  
as an IANA action as part of the IETF publishing RFC 3849).

It appears appropriate to me that any such reservation of AS Numbers  
for documentation purposes be undertaken as an IANA reservation in the  
AS Number Registry. For this to be undertaken I understand that there  
needs to be a published RFC with an IANA Considerations section that  
details the proposed IANA action. I have drafted a document that calls  
for such a AS reservation in the AS Number Registry: draft-huston-as- 
documentation-reservation-00.txt. I would like to request that the IDR  
WG consider this draft for adoption as a WG document.

Regards

Geoff Huston
