  Suggested text:

   SDOs are encouraged to submit their RADIUS specifications to the IETF
   for publication as an informational RFC.  Vendors defining Vendor-
   Specific dictionaries for their own use SHOULD make their
   specification publicly available, but there is no need to publish
   their specification as an RFC.

  i.e. IANA should do nothing in either case.
