Yes, it's exactly that, but CPA001, CPA002, CPA003, etc.
The logic is that, when published, nothing should still be "to be determined"
It's not a big deal, just a thought.
I appreciate how precisely you've been with the registries involved, because
sometimes documents are too vague, and we have many similiarly named
registries...

<tp>
I am not familiar with CPA00n - Completely Pointless Acronym (when we already 
have a perfectly adequate one with TBA)?

Anyhow, I do agree with making them e.g. TBAn TBAm TBAx and the like, for some 
values of n, m and x, so that we do not tax the minds of IANA too much.  Of 
course IANA can cope, but the less they have to think the faster and less error 
prone the result is likely to be (IMHO).
