I think you can add an Implementation Status section into the draft as described in RFC7942. It serves as documentation of the existing implementations when the draft goes through IETF Last Call as well as IESG Evaluation. It will be removed before the draft is published as an RFC. I have found these sections helpful and informative when I was on the IESG.

Cheers
