This seems a bit of a strange thing to do, if it's going to be closed as soon
as the RFC is published then why have it?  A registry implies you can register
things in it, while this will be just a publication of existing values with no
ability to register new ones.  If it's that then it's a List of Algorithm IDs,
not a Registry.
