Actually, I believe he suggested that IANA get the material from the draft and then the RFC Editor remove the "beef" (the registry copy) and insert the text he proposed. Not you: the RFC Editor, *after* IANA has got the registry. This thread strikes me as irrelevant. We have a prototype registry, which is a necessary deliverable. What the RFC Editor does later is not our problem: we'll be looking at the IANA registry by then. Addison Addison P.
