This type of work is more “in place” and known in IETF. So during CCSDS meetings, I often had to tell people that registries are there for the community and that all the rules are defined by and for the community. I found often that people did not know it and were taking everything that they see on the SANA web site as granted. Hence my note. Again, if the current policy is not good enough, change it as you see fit.<div><br></div><div>Marc.<br><div><br><blockquote type="cite"><div>Le 19 janv. 2023 à 22:26, Marc Blanchet <marc.blanchet@viagenie.ca> a écrit :</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><div><meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"><div style="overflow-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; line-break: after-white-space;"><br><div><blockquote type="cite"><div>Le 19 janv. 2023 à 21:08, Vint Cerf <vint@google.com> a écrit :</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><div><div dir="ltr">this is a lot like IANA rules.</div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Exactly!

That policy is not defined by SANA but by the community (aka ccsds area or working group). In some ways, the wg who defines the registry is the “owner” of the registry; SANA is just the custodian: receive the requests, and apply the policy for allocations. So it is up to the working group to define or modify the policies. If the wg prefers an allocation by 5 and that the requestor has to send a banana to SANA, then it will be done that way ;-). So if the current allocation policy is not good, make a resolution and modify it as you see fit.</div><div><br></div><div>Regards, Marc.<br><div><br><blockquote type="cite"><div>Le 19 janv. 2023 à 02:36, Felix Flentge via SIS-DTN <<a href="mailto:sis-dtn@mailman.ccsds.org" target="_blank">sis-dtn@mailman.ccsds.org</a>> a écrit :</div><br><div><div style="font-family:Helvetica;font-size:12px;font-style:normal;font-variant-caps:normal;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:normal;text-align:start;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;word-spacing:0px;text-decoration:none"><div style="margin:0cm;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">Hi,<u></u><u></u></div><div style="margin:0cm;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><u></u> <u></u></div><div style="margin:0cm;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">I would like to discuss today or soon assignment of CBHE node numbers.
