Re: WGLC Announcement for draft-ietf-tsvwg-iana-ports-08 - 26th November2010

I do not support publication.

I commented earlier that

"I have a problem with this I-D in that it would appear to make no
distinction between allocation and assignment, and would seem to
include registration in the mix as well, at least at times, while hinting that
whatever these may be, ownership is something else. In the limited context of
transport
identifiers, this may not cause confusion but in closely allied registries,
allocation and assignment are fundamentally different processes and those who
interchange the two are confused and cause confusion."

and I still regard that as a show stopper.
