The way that we're doing this in P3P was to author a compact, minimal
internet-draft explaining the semantics and relevence of what is
being registered (an HTTP header in our case; actually, there isn't
an HTTP header registry, but same principle), and then pursue that on
an individual-submission standard track. This would mean that the
entire SOAP/XMLP effort would not need to go through the IETF
process, just a document explaining what we're doing that needs to
get registered.
