Sort of. The problem is that it really isn't the IETF's expertise or responsibility to create that sort of document. In fact what would be ideal is to point to a document or registry controlled by the Unicode Consortium. But the conclusion of the community during IDNA was that we would not be provided such a stable reference. Given that, IDNA did a de-reference; we'd create an IANA registry, run by a Unicode expert, but that tracked the state of the properties that we needed for our purposes. Not pretty or ideal, but practical. This WG followed that lead, I think equally pragmatically.

As you say, water under the bridge. I got email back and Patrik has agreed to be the expert; I'll add a management item during agenda bash. He'll prepare the contents of the registry and we should be good to go.
