Hi Michael,

Regarding the Change Controller role for the new IANA registry, I believe
the IETF (and thus the IESG) should be the Change Controller for registry
elements created by this IETF consensus document, such as the registry
definition and entries for reserved, private use, or deprecated values.

However, the initial allocations being grandfathered in from external
projects are a separate case. Since these definitions did not originate
within the IETF community, I am uncertain if it is appropriate for the
IETF/IESG to assume the role of Change Controller/registrant for those
specific entries. As per RFC 8126, IANA must know who is authorized to
manage changes or deprecations for a registered value.

I suggest we avoid listing the IETF/IESG as the Change Controller for those
external allocations. I defer to Amanda and the IANA team for their
guidance on the correct procedure here.

Thanks,
Ketan
