Yakov asks:
What was the reason(s) the request was made for an assignment
that required IESG Approval, rather than either Specification
Required or First Come First Serve ?
it semed to be the right thing at the time
it seemed to be too lose to have the IETF out of the loop
when changing one of the core IETF protocols in a way that could
require changes to deployed software and hardware but it seemed
a bit much to require that all such options have to go through
a full IETF development process ( because there could
be options the IETF did not have much interest or concern
about and such a lack of interest should not be an automatic block)
i.e. a middle ground
