[sipcore] consensus call: draft-roach-sipcore-priority-00: IANA registration template needed?

[Paul Kyzivat <[e-mail]>]

We are in the process of adopting draft-roach-sipcore-priority-00 as a 
wg document. We already ran a WGLC on it in anticipation of the adoption.

One issue raised during the WGLC was whether the document should include 
some sort of IANA registration template. Christer proposed this, and 
Keith opposed it.

Christer failed to specify what he wanted to see in this template. The 
existing document specifies what the registry should contain: A 
"priority" name and a document reference. "IETF Review" is required for 
adding new values, which ensures that there will be an RFC to reference. 
So presumably the template would include at least these two values.

Please indicate if you think the draft is ok as-is, or should be revised 
to include a registration template.

If you favor a template, please indicate what you think it should contain.

	Thanks,
	Paul
