I agree that we don’t need to / want to add this to the registry.

It should be

On the other hand it is not relay necessary to have it there, the reason for 
the mapping registries is to avoid CBOR label/key conflicts between attributes. 
So information about major type can just as well be kept in the specification 
defining the mapping.

Hi
When writing the IANA mapping sections for the ACE framework and CWT I first 
required registrations to include the CBOR major type, Later I did not (e.g. 
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-ace-oauth-authz-02#section-10.7). I 
would like to here the preferences of the group so that we can update mapping 
registries to have the same format.
The benefit of having the CBOR major type in the registry is that one then has 
more of the important information in one place.
On the other hand it is not relay necessary to have it there, the reason for 
the mapping registries is to avoid CBOR label/key conflicts between attributes. 
So information about

In COSE (https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-cose-msg-13) it is included 
"value  This contains the CBOR type for the value portion of the label."
I would vote to keep data in registries at a minimum, i.e. exclude CBOR Major 
type from there.

Opinions?
Best regards
