IESG/Authors/WG Chairs:

As this document is asking IANA to add and maintain a large number of registries, we suggest that the authors evaluate to make sure that all these registries are needed.

In addition, we need the authors to clarify the registries' contents. Is the document instructing IANA to create 33 registries, each of which has a single entry consisting of the corresponding contents of the table's "IV (Value)" column, the table's "IV (Description)" column, and a Reference column that will include a link to this document? Or will each of those registries have multiple values pulled from the sections named in the "IV (Description)" field? For example, would the "Restriction" registry consist of the 10 values listed in Section 3.3.1? 

Section 3.3.1 specifically states, "These [10] values are maintained in the 'Restriction' IANA registry per Section 10.2," but this appears to be contradicted by the paragraph preceding the table in Section 10.2, which seems to indicate that only the single value in that Section 10.2 table, "iodef-restriction-type," will be registered. 

If these registries should be made of the lists of values in Section 3.3.1, 3.2, 3.9, etc., the purpose of the "IV (Description)" field in the table in Section 10.2 is unclear. 

Thank you,
