(PIM) Message Types'.

2.2. The Format of the Registry

      Description - a brief decryption of packet type.

      Reference - the reference document, that defines the packet type.

2.3. Registration Procedures

    registry SHALL be made following the 'IETF Consensus' policies.

    This section contains the initial contents of the 'Protocol

2.5. Sub-Registries

    No sub-registries are currently defined in 'Protocol Independent 
Multicast (PIM)
  Message Types' registry.

4. Security Consideration: renumber

5. IANA Considerations: renumber, modify in the following way:

IANA is asked to create the Protocol Independent Multicast (PIM)
  Message Types' registry following Section 2 of this document.

6. Other sections: renumber.

I suppose the author will accept my proposal that makes the registry 
description more clear.

All the best,
