That was "rejected", the actual idea is to publish the registry
draft first (closing the old registry), and to finish the
business with the draft registry later.

> 2 - check SHOULD, MUST, and rationale for Suppress-Scripts

Addison proposed a rationale to be added in -02.  Maybe Ira
and Randy still want to replace two corresponding SHOULD NOT
by some "MUST NOT unless".

> 3 - improve registry ABNF, simplify the corresponding chapter

That was rejected, Addison wants to document the record-jar
format, not its registry incarnation.  That's backwards from
my POV, mail (2822) and news (1036) use prose for the simple
general format, and syntax for the header field details, but
there's no rule to do it this way also in 3066bis.

Already discussed elsewhere.  The last idea was to replace the
"normative Canonical: xx" by an "informative Use: xx".

> 5 - move redundant tags from draft registry to an appendix

Alread discussed elsewhere.  It's possible to arrange things
this way, the registry would be shorter, implementations would
be simpler, but after all that's mainly a matter of taste.  And
it's already clear that I didn't like two MO-nsense entries.
