[X] Punt - I may or may not want an IANA registry, but if we do create
one, do it in another draft

I think we should punt for now. However, IF we decide that for SIP, as a
whole, we do try to bring more real implemenation stuff into the fold,
then I think we should have a registry, that should be included in a
separate document. I'm afraid we may get very delayed if we try to do
that now, as there may be a tendency to analyze legacy usages in terms
of how reasonable people think they are - i.e., there may be some for
which there is a clear standard's solution and then we'll debate whether
we include them all whether folks would ever deem them useful or not.

On the one hand, the discussion was not conclusive.  On the other, here

1. We go at lengths to say how to do Info Packages.  The last thing we
need to do is say, "by the way, it's not so bad if you don't."

Subject: [Sip] Legacy Info Package Registration

We discussed creating a registry, and we discussed whether it would be

On the one hand, the discussion was not conclusive.  On the other, here
are my reasons for not including it in the Info Packages document:

1. We go at lengths to say how to do Info Packages.  The last thing we
need to do is say, "by the way, it's not so bad if you don't."

2. People not involved today will look at such a registry and, no matter
how much doom and gloom wording we use, will think itthink it's OK to not use
Info Packages.

3. People will be confused, thinking Content-Type is sufficient to
identify an Info Package.  It is not.

4. How would we possibly police the registry? If someone comes to IANA
to register a new MIME type do the klaxons ring?  That would not be a
good thing.

So, time for another poll:
[ ] Yes - we really, really need an IANA registry of "legacy" INFO
usages, and we need it done in this draft
     (NOTE: creating the IANA registry requires the seed values, which
means this draft will enumerate the
      known legacy usages)

[ ] No, do not create an IANA registry, but please enumerate known
legacy usages in this draft

[ ] No - please do not create an IANA registry

[ ] Punt - I may or may not want an IANA registry, but if we do create
one, do it in another draft
