The dump stream registry has been created. It is linked from http://registrar.central.org/.AuriStor has been investigating extending the Dump Stream to support the functionality proposed in April 2011 as RPC Refresh (Gerrit 4573) as well as additional data and metadata types implemented by AuriStorFS. To avoid unnecessary collisions and to maximize interoperability I propose the creation of a Dump Tag Registry.The Dump Format is poorly documented and many tags and sub-tags have been squatted upon over the years without creation of a registry.
I will provide additional details of the AuriStor sub-tags to the Registrar once a Registry has been published.The 3 June 2023 draft of the "AFS Dump Stream Format" document that I written is available at http://registrar.central.org/dump/dump_format.txt
I will reference this document in my AFS Technology Workshop presentation "An Overview of the Dump Stream Framework Adopted by OpenAFS and the Dump Tag Registry" on Wednesday 14 June 2023 at 2:20pm EDT (UTC-4).

Hope to see you there. Jeffrey Altman
