Btw:

As just posted, i restructured acp-15 so that section 10 is now only what i
call operational aspects, mostly about registrar behavior. Which does
apply to any type of registrar mostly. BRSKI or not. Based on review/discuss
with Joel. Just small bits specific to BRSKI.

The more difficult part is that some of this behavior needs to be standardized.
Thats the pieces i added to the normative sections. Such as "registrars MUST 
NOT 
allocate conflicting ACP addresses" (*doh*, but about the single most important 
requirement
for the ACP ). Likewise interop is affected by how ACP nodes signal when
certs expire or fail.  Added to certificate maintenance section.

I would be happy if i could offload all the operational aspects of the
ACP into a separate operational RFC for ACP, especially if it could help
to speed up getting this ACP draft out as an RFC (and make it shorter ;-). 

Alas i fear that some @$$^%*& IETF reviewer will not allow us to make such
a new operational draft be an informational-only reference in the current
ACP draft, and that would just have us achieve the opposite of what we
need right now: Get the current ACP draft out.

So, and here i can not distinguish my ACP author and WG chair head:
unless some AD tells me how an ACP ops draft could NOT become a normative
reference to the current ACP draft, i will push back against opening
up one now (unfortunately).o

Cheers
