Hi Randy,

the RPKI report is very impressive and probably very useful. But:

- Other areas (e.g. the Security Area, where I'm coming form) may not 
have this tradition.

- For "smaller" protocols the gain does not justify the effort of 
writing a separate implementation report. A section in the base document 
is much simpler to maintain.

- And as I noted earlier on this thread, a wiki is a good alternative, 
provided everyone reading the base draft is referred to the 
"implementation status" wiki. They should not have to guess that one 
exists, or to search for it.

Thanks,
	Yaron
