BCP for tree-diagrams? This doesn't seem like an appropriate application of
that designation. I don't view the format for tree diagrams to be a
"practice", whereas it definitely seems "informational".
Looking more deeply at RFC2026, I can see how Section's 4.2.2's "...does not
represent an Internet community consensus or recommendation" could be cause for
objection, since this draft is obviously going through a WG (NETMOD) and
therefore does, in fact, represent some form of consensus, but I'm willing to
gloss over that line as, clearly, many Informational RFCs are published by WGs,
which wouldn't be possible if that line were taken literally. Perhaps we
should file Errata against it?

===== original message =====
Hi Juergen,
Sorry for the slow response, I missed this message.
Circling back to this discussion made me go revisit RFC2026. Based on
all the factors/discussions I agree that standards track isn't quite
right for this document, but I also think informational isn't quite
right either. I do think BCP would as described in RFC2026 fits. This
said, I think it would be good to hear from at least Kent (as Chair) and
Benoit (as AD) if they agree/disagree with publishing as a BCP.
Kent, Benoit?
Thanks,
Lou
