Hi,

Wanted to ask this question separately to the proponents of a registry.

If the WG decides to have a registry of power states in IANA (in
whatever form):

1) Can this WG add states on behalf of other org like DMTF, ACPI, or
manufacturers to an IANA registry?

2) If not then do those bodies need to be approached to add their states
to the IANA registry?

3) Do we have a sense of their willingness to do this? 

4) What if they don't agree to add their states? Are we left with a
registry for everyone with nothing but on, off and standby?
