Hello, Warren
Just uploaded the 12th version. The only change is status of GOST R 34.11-94 -- DEPRECATED.

1. whis is this an informational RFC and not a standard track RFC.
That's a reasonable question with a simple answer: because the WG changed its mind on what the status of this protocol should be. RFC 5933 describes a national standard that is thinly deployed. At the time, it was necessary to have the protocol on standards track; now it no longer is required.
2. What is requested from IANA. ths text you wrote and I copied is not a directive to IANA that is clear
You are correct that the IANA Considerations section is quite unclear, and needs to be clarified before the IESG considers it.
That is a good point.
The document says:
---
This document updates the RFC IANA registry "Delegation Signer (DS) Resource Record (RR) Type Digest Algorithms" by adding an entry for the GOST R 34.11-2012 algorithm:
Value Algorithm
TBA2 GOST R 34.11-2012
The entry for Value 3, GOST R 34.11-94 should be updated to have its Status changed to '-'.
----
The IANA registry being referenced "DNSSEC Delegation Signer (DS) Resource Record (RR) Type Digest Algorithms" is here: https:// www. iana. org/ assignments/ ds-rr-types/ ds-rr-types. xhtml
Setting this to '-' does seem incorrect, and from the text I think that it should be either "MUST NOT" or, better yet (for clarity) "DEPRECATED" .
In addition, the IANA has a question:
------
"Third, in the DNSSEC Delegation Signer (DS) Resource Record (RR) Type Digest Algorithms registry located at:
a new registration will be made as follows:
Value: [ TBD-at-Registration ]
Description: GOST R 34.11-2012
Status:
Reference: [ RFC-to-be ]
IANA Question --> What should the entry for "Status" be for this new registration?"
--------
I believe that it is clear (e.g: "6. Implementation Considerations
The support of this cryptographic suite in DNSSEC-aware systems is
OPTIONAL.") that it can only be OPTIONAL, but we need to clearly state that.
So, I think a new version should be submitted saying:
----
This document updates the RFC IANA registry "Delegation Signer (DS)
Resource Record (RR) Type Digest Algorithms" by adding an entry for
the GOST R 34.11-2012 algorithm:
Value: TBA2
Description: GOST R 34.11-2012
Status: OPTIONAL
Reference: [ RFC-to-be ]
The entry for Value 3, GOST R 34.11-94 should be updated to have its
Status changed to 'DEPRECATED'.
A new version was submitted (-11), but still says:
" The entry for Value 3, GOST R 34.11-94 should be updated to have its
Status changed to '-'."
The registry is here: https:// www. iana. org/ assignments/ ds-rr-types/ ds-rr-types. xhtml
'-' to me implies that the codepoint hasn't been used, but I don't actually know if that's true. I think "DEPRECATED" is better, but perhaps I'm wrong (anyone seeing '-' will presumably do read the referenced RFC, so…_)
I will ask the IANA which they think is best / clearest…
Closing the loop:
I reached out to the IANA, and this was their reply:
"Hi Warren,
It makes sense to us to list "DEPRECATED" in the status column. When we're asked to deprecate a codepoint, the label "deprecated" is usually added to the registration in some way.
"-" is a bit of a cipher, and doesn't indicate that there's been a change.
thanks,
Amanda

If the authors post a new version before the draft cut-off (Monday) with this addressed I should be able to move it along.
Thank you all,
