Thank you  I'd propose we add this text below the table:

5.2.  DLEP Traffic Classification Sub-Data Item Registry

   Upon approval of this document, IANA is requested to create a new
   DLEP registry, named "Traffic Classification Sub-Data Item Type
   Values".

   The following table provides initial registry values and the
   [RFC8126] defined policies that should apply to the registry:


      +=============+=================================+=============+
      | Type Code   | Description                     | Reference   |
      +=============+=================================+=============+
      | 0           | Reserved                        |             |
      +-------------+---------------------------------+-------------+
      | 1           | DiffServ Traffic Classification | [RFC2474]   |
      +-------------+---------------------------------+-------------+
      | 2           | Ethernet Traffic Classification | [IEEE8021Q] |
      +-------------+---------------------------------+-------------+
      | 3-65407     | Specification Required          |             |
      +-------------+---------------------------------+-------------+
      | 65408-65534 | Private Use                     |             |
      +-------------+---------------------------------+-------------+
      | 65535       | Reserved                        |             |
      +-------------+---------------------------------+-------------+

                      Table 2: Initial Registry Values


   This section provides guidance to the Internet Assigned Numbers
   Authority (IANA) regarding registration of values related to the
   Traffic Classification Sub-Data Item Type Values registry for the
   DLEP protocol, in accordance with BCP 26, [RFC2434].

   This single registry covers packet traffic classification, where
   standard packet header identifiers in packets or data frames can be
   used to indicate QoS treatment.  The two registries requested are
   well known identifiers used for QoS in IP networks and Ethernet
   networks.

   This registry has reserved values for similar type identifiers that
   MAY BE introduced in the future which could indicate QoS treatment.
   It is not expected that other entries will be frequently requested.

   Allocations within the registry require documentation of the proposed
   use of the allocated value (Specification Required) and approval by
   the Designated Expert (DE) assigned by the IESG (see [RFC5226]) and
   to verify that the document is permanently and publicly available.
   The DE is also expected to check the clarity of purpose and use of
   the requested code points.  Last, the DE must verify that any
   specification produced in the IETF that requests one of these code
   points has been made available for review by the MANET or other
   appropriate working group and that any specification produced outside
   the IETF does not conflict with work that is active or already
   published within the IETF.

Do you think that would satisfy the requirement?

Thanks again - new registries are new to me

Don

Thanks for the fast response perhaps we can resolve this.

We asked for a Traffic Classification code entry out of an existing block
This has its own registry that has two entries based on the traffic marking for QoS either Diff Serv Code Points or Ethernet DSCPs.  If any other entries desired in they future , they would have to be some identifier in a packet or a frame that could be used to indicate a separate queue/QoS treatment.   We left that for future.
We expect a new draft will have to be written that justifies the entry.

So how do we make that more clear?

If someone asks for a code point in your Specification Required range, IANA will forward that request to whoever you offer to appoint as the Designated Expert.  That person has to either approve the request, or reply explaining why that request needs correction or should be rejected.  How would you like that person to go about making that decision?  What criteria do you want them to apply?

That's what needs to go in Section 5.2.
