Barry, we can augment the IANA Considerations section to say that the
additional instructions are being added to the registry. I’ll work on precise
language with you and Kathleen.

-- Section 6 --
This specification adds to the instructions to the Designated Experts
for the following IANA registries, all of which are in the JSON
Object Signing and Encryption (JOSE) protocol category [IANA.JOSE]:
o JSON Web Key Types
o JSON Web Key Elliptic Curve
o JSON Web Key Parameters
Because you're changing the DE instructions, either this document needs
to "update" 7517 and 7518 (where those registries are defined), or it
needs to update the registries to add itself to the reference field
("[RFC7518][RFCxxxx]"). And in either case, it needs to make it clear in
the introduction that Section 6 provides additional instructions to the
designated experts for those three registries. Otherwise, it's too easy
for DEs for those registries not to notice this update. [I know the
current DEs are well aware of it. But that's not the point.]
Thanks. I asked this same question on Friday to IANA to see which of those
options was their preference. I have not heard back yet. The editors and
chairs were thinking another reference would be added to the reference field of
the registry. I'm fine with whichever option works best.
