RE: Proposed amendment to language of draft-ietf-url-procedures

I received a private mail from Ian, which contains no answer or
explanation on the basic problem that:

> How, do you think, IANA is managing collisons, identifications
> and interoperability of TCP port numbers free-for-all?

His mail, instead, basically said that URL registration procedure
must exist because IETF once decided that URL WG should exist.

This is a bogus reasoning as we all know that IETF in not infallible.

So, are there anyone else who can answer:

> How, do you think, IANA is managing collisons, identifications
> and interoperability of TCP port numbers free-for-all?

Those who are interested in the exact content of Ian's mail should ask me
or Ian privately, not to infringe Ian's copyright.
