I choose to progress this document without an IETF Last Call.
For some stand-alone informational RFCs, not having an IETF-wide last
call is probably reasonable. However, a document like this is going
to be referenced many times in other RFCs, sometimes as a normative
reference. It would be useful to have IETF-wide last calls on all
documents that are going to be widely referenced, if for no other
reason than to alert the authors of the documents that will reference
them that they have an opportunity for open discussion.
