Ned,

Sorry for the late comments but I just noticed a lack
of instructions in this document.

In the IANA Considerations section below, it mentions that
those options that do not start with vnd must be defined
in a standards track doc, which is fine.  What are the
requirements for the ones that do start with vnd?  FCFS?
Expert or WG review?

Thanks for the clarification.

Michelle



10.  IANA Considerations

     System port number XXXX - TBD by IANA

     The service name to be registered with the Internet Assigned Number
Authority (IANA) is "MTQP".

     The IANA is asked to register the URI registration template found
in Appendix A in accordance with [BCP35].

     This document requests that IANA maintain one new registry: MTQP
options.  The registry's purpose is to register options to this proto-
col.  Options whose names do not begin with "vnd." MUST be defined in a
standards track or IESG approved experimental RFC.  New MTQP options
MUST include the following information as part of their definition:

     option identifier
     option parameters
     added commands
     standard commands affected

Internet Draft      Message Tracking Query Protocol        July 16, 2003


     specification reference
     discussion

     One MTQP option is defined in this document, with the following
registration definition:

     option identifier: STARTTLS
     option parameters: none
     added commands: STARTTLS
     standard commands affected: none
     specification reference: RFC TBD
     discussion: see RFC TBD

     Additional vendor-specific options for this protocol have names
that begin with "vnd.".  After the "vnd." would appear the reversed
domain name of the vendor, another dot ".", and a name for the option
itself.  For example, "vnd.com.example.extinfo" might represent a
vendor-specific extension providing extended information by the owner of
the "example.com" domain.  These names MAY be registered with IANA.
