Hi, all,

Agreed - it is useful.

Speaking from the ports review team, I would ask whether the current requested 
port is already deployed; I recommend replacing the current text with “TBD” 
until an assignment has actually been made, and avoiding indicating a specific 
number until coordinated with IANA.
