RE: Quick question on isakmp-registry.



I agree completely.

Should I then send the IESG the detailed application
and have a decision made on the next telechat?

the generic IANA document says that in the absence of specific guidance, 
IANA is to follow tradition.
For registries from which we have never handed out values, the tradition 
could be seen as not handing out values :-)

so I think IANA can, if it wants to and has the support of the IESG, say 
"these values will not be handed out without the IESG telling us it's OK".
