Please note that that document provides guidance for registration in

it's not clear to me that we would still have to generate even "stub"
ietf-drafts once it is operational. I nope that sending emails to the
various lists with a reference to the W3C document will be sufficient.

Actually, it should be quite clear that this will no longer be
necessary.

It's clear that an RFC track is no longer REQUIRED for the IESG to direct 
IANA to create an entry for the standards tree. But it's not clear how one 
asks, absent the RFC, the IESG to take the action. Once the new policy is 
in place I will want to provide some very simple, walk-me-through-it, steps 
for the W3C of how one goes about getting the IESG to take the action.
