Indeed, that is what "IETF consensus" means, isn't it?
Having wisely been advised to reread RFC2434 for the definition of
'IETF Consensus', I did so:
"Specifically, new assignments are made via RFCs approved by the IESG."
The RFC doesn't have to be Standards Track; however, I assume that the
RFC needs IETF consensus for publication.
If the assignments requested are from the IETF Consensus space, I do
not consider the current document ready for publication.
If the assignments are from the vendor private or experimental space,
this document is not needed; indeed, as I understand RFC 3036, IANA
management of these spaces is not needed either.
