Fair ‘nuff I’ll add “, see Section 6 in [ID.sidr-bgpsec-protocol] for more
information."

Do you think this is a blocking issue?
I’d prefer to have IANA make the allocation and stick it in the document when
it’s approved. YMMV on this but since the registry isn’t yet created I’d
rather not set an example that others might follow of making up registry names
and numbers in drafts that have not yet reached consensus.
To expand on this issue though should we also reserve the low value and the
high value too? i.e.,
OLD (please forgive the formatting):
Digest Signature Algorithm Suite Specification
Algorithm Algorithm Identifier Pointer

| SHA-256 | ECDSA P-256 | TBD | RFC 5480 |

NEW:

PS I also got some other minor nits from David that I’ll incorporate in the
next version that will pop out Sunday/Monday.
