Scott, Thanks, I agree that there is supporting language in RFC 2026 to support draft-ietf-regext-unhandled-namespaces and draft-ietf-regext-secure-authinfo-transfer as standards track technical specifications. We would change the track of both drafts from BCP to standards track. Are there additional thoughts from the working group?

Patrick's reservations have merit. If we as a community can't agree that the documents describe best current practices, then it might not be appropriate for them to be published as BCPs. I'd feel more comfortable with publication on the standards track as technical specifications ("A Technical Specification is any description of a protocol, service, procedure, convention, or format") as described in Section 3.1 of RFC 2026.
