DISCUSS:

[For the IESG to discuss]

I'd like to discuss some of the procedural stuff that's been raised by others
before going to either ABSTAIN or NO OBJECTION.  Basically I have the same
concerns as Eric: The shepherd writeup is 4+ years old and doesn't use an
approved template; the directorate reviews are stale; IETF Last Call was 3+
years ago.  Maybe this is all fine, but I'd like to be sure we talk about it
first.

In Section 12, we're telling the Designated Experts that an I-D counts as a
specification, even if it is never published as an RFC.  But an I-D can expire.
 Are we OK with having an IANA registry with an entry that claims as its
authoritative specification an expired I-D?

COMMENT:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Section 12.2.2 appears to have four registrations all run together.  Could we
separate them somehow, either with line breaks or with subsections?

Section 4.1: Why is this only a SHOULD?  Is it OK if I do something different?

Section 4.3: Same question.
