Re: [Ltru] Issue #43: AD #10 - section 5.1 vs 3.2 on File-Date value



I think Kent's proposed text, together with Martin's slight edit, is excellent. It reflects current IANA practice, which works well and is really better than what 4646 says, and it provides a justification for the File-Date records in the replacement records even though IANA doesn't use them verbatim. Let's go with it.

======PROPOSED TEXT=================

Whenever an entry is created or modified in the registry, the
'File-Date' record at the start of the registry is updated to reflect
the most recent modification date. The date format SHALL be the
"full-date" format of [RFC3339] (Klyne, G., ed. and C. Newman, "Date
and Time on the Internet: Timestamps", July 2002). The date SHALL be
the date on which that version of the registry was first published by
IANA. There SHALL be at most one version of the registry published in
a day.

A File-Date record is also included in each request to IANA to insert
or modify records indicating the acceptance date of the records in the
request.
