Hi Jari,

thanks for your input. We will discuss this issue in the context of all
the HIP bis specs within the HIP WG.

Cheers,

Gonzalo

Ralph,

This document calls for the assignment of a new HIP Packet Type from the HIP 
Packet Type registry, 
http://www.iana.org/assignments/hip-parameters/hip-parameters.xml Assignment 
of HIP Packet Types requires IETF consensus. The purpose of this last call 
is to assess IETF consensus for the assignment described in the document.

I support this action.

RFC 5201 defines the rules for the registry. I would like to request that RFC 
5201bis http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-hip-rfc5201-bis-07#section-9 
would use "IETF Review or IESG Approval" rule as opposed to just saying "IETF 
Review". I think it is pretty obvious in this case that a number allocation 
should have been made, and having the "or IESG Approval" part in this IANA 
rule would have allowed an allocation without a last call, unless something 
special was going on (large number of numbers were being allocated, we'd be 
running out of the numbers, the proposal came from some entity not as 
trustworthy as the IRTF, etc).

Jari
