In short, the IESG can put any document to whatever status they want, but depending on status the bar is higher or lower and the process varies a bit. Experimental has the lowest bar; Ron and I thought it might make the process in the IETF (which has already been highly contentious) easiest.

We have any number of instances where technology has been published as experimental or informational and later moved to the standards track. However, if there is a strong opinion on this list, I (and I think Ron) can also be convinced to change it.
