We try to make most assignments shortly after
the document is approved.  It is sometimes necessary
to work with the authors to get the registry just=20
right.  Then we notify the RFC-Editor that the IANA
actions are completed.

If something is in a rush, we just need to be told so
that we can put it to the top of the list to to-do's.

Let me know if you have any further questions.

Michelle

Note: IANA can make the assignments right away once the IESG approves
a document. No need for the RFC to be out. If/when there is a need for
the IANA assigments to be known for an approved draft in a (relative)
hurry, IANA just needs to be asked. Otherwise, by default, they may
not make assignments until the RFC editor specifically asks for the
assignments so that the RFC can be completed.
