<MB>Not human consumption, but more IANA and developers. No action taken.</MB>

<MB>Yes it is still useful as it is currently being used in production, even if 
the draft has expired</MB>

<MB>disagree. This is a note to IANA to offload their service. If they don’t, 
then that means more trafic on them, which may be ok.</MB>
