That makes sense since RFC 7012 mentions that IANA registry is now THE 
reference

    The IANA "IPFIX Information Elements" registry [IANA-IPFIX] is the
    current complete reference for IPFIX Information Elements.

The IE-doctors collectively agreed that updating the OLD is not needed, 
and they will consistently apply this rule for future IEs
I thought I would let the IPFIX community know.
