The revised procedures in draft-ietf-tsvwg-iana-ports might have an
interesting impact on AppsArea technologies, since we have registered a
fair number of ports, DNS SRV records, etc. Has anyone here thought much
about the potential impact?

SRVs are scattered around all over the place. Stuart's list is one place,
several RFCs also define some. At this point it would only confuse matters
to have it in two places. The authors of iana-ports are fully aware that
they need to go through RFCs and Stuarts data to pre-populate the new
registry.
