Or those of any other jurisdiction. If jurisdiction Z comes to the IETF and says "we have declared protocol A to be a service of type B", and we can think of harmless ways of making B more obvious in an extended version of A, that seems like potential work, possibly even for a WG but certainly for individual submission. But it should be done after A is done (assuming that A is extensible) and after Z has looked at A. --Paul Hoffman
