Acting as an IANA expert for IKEv2 registries, I have noticed that expert do not get any option to say anything for documents which go through IESG. The IANA registry is just updated without any discussion with expert in those cases. So I do not think whether it affects anything if you say "requires Expert Review" compared to the "requires Expert Review or IETF Consensus", or at least you might want to add explicit text to make it sure that the review policy mandates that all assignments go through the Expert.. -- kivinen@xxxxxx _______________________________________________ Ietf mailing list Ietf@xxxxxxxx https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf
