assignment guidance is for people to contact the IETF to request an
assignment in that registry. From the IETF side they would be some
commitment to review the request.
No. IETF Review means that the request has to be made from an IETF
Stream document. Such a document is being reviewed by the IETF
anyway, and the registry adds no extra work.
For the sake of comparison (and hopefully clarification), what's an
example of an IANA action that does create work for the IETF, such that the
IESG would object?
I think I gave one a couple of times: creating a registry that requires a
designated expert (Expert Review or Specification Required) is what we've
objected to. It commits the IESG to appointing and manageing one or more
DEs, without approval that comes with IETF consensus.
