There's a proposal for early IANA assignment, see:
Title : Early IANA Allocation of Standards Track Codepoints
Author(s) : K. Kompella, A. Zinin
Filename : draft-kompella-zinin-early-allocation-01.txt
Pages : 7
Date : 2004-5-3
This memo discusses earlier allocation of code points by IANA as a
remedy to the problem created by the 'Standards Action' IANA policy
for protocols where, by the IETF process, implementation and
deployment experience is desired or required prior to publication.
A URL for this Internet-Draft is:

However, this should be discussed elsewhere, I suppose.
