Tony, Ted, and Larry, My compliments! I just read this whole draft pretty carefully. I found _no_ nits to complain about. I'm delighted to see that the old text about 'published in an RFC' is gone. Others - please read this draft soon and send comments. I personally think they've got it right this time.

The goal has been to minimize unnecessary process, so, in this draft, the process required for all registrations is "Expert Review", with different guidelines for 'Permanent', 'Provisional', and 'Historical'. The Designated Expert may recommend IETF review and IESG approval if wanted. (Don't reply to this summary; read the actual text, please.) In addition, all values are unique (no duplicates) unless the IESG approves changing an existing registration to point out the other usages or allows transfer. I also tried to incorporate most of Roy's suggestions as well as some of the others; however, I didn't add another level (well, except for 'historical'), but instead tried to make the process simpler and more deterministic.
