Re: [Iptel] Re: draft-ietf-iptel-tel-reg-00 submitted

I agree that there should just be a single table in the IANA registry. 
My point in the comment is that the guidelines for people who submit an 
update to the table depends on whether they are creating a new 'row' - 
i.e., a new parameter, or just a new RFC reference for an existing 
value. In the former case, the instructions to RFC authors needs to say 
that they have to provide the parameter name, whether it has predefined 
values, and a set of RFCs. For folks adding a value to an existing 
parameter, you provide only the param name and reference to the RFC 
providing new values. IANA would be instructed to add those RFC 
references to the row in the existing table.
