From: Kent Watsen <k...@watsen.net> Sent: 09 February 2021 17:47 I agree, but it takes an I-D to do the update, yes?
<tp> I don't see why; the registry is expert review and we are doing a change that comes under permitted changes for a YANG module, ie a status change. My understanding is that a publication of a draft altering an IANA registry will trigger an “expert review”, if that registry was created with the update-policy set that way. The draft itself doesn’t request an expert review, the expert review happens in the background. I’m not familiar with this being done without an I-D, in order to show WG consensus. <tp> It happens in the TLS WG, for example, where the registries of security options are Expert Review and when an e-mail comes to IANA, which may be from outside the IETF, the reviewers raise it on the TLS list and if they are satisfied with the support, tell IANA to go ahead. No I-D needed, no decision for the WG Chair to make. The whole point of Expert Review is to have a process which is not as heavy-weight as a (Standards Track) RFC.
