Bert,

As we have often said in the past, the RFC Editor dislikes putting dumb
(technical term) things into archival documents.  Who will care in
2006, much less 2015, that there was no IANA request in this document?
So it has been our practice to remove "No IANA Request" sections before
final publication, and we are happy to have Mike left to his own
devices here.
