Some observations

• A lot of methods, very few in RFCs
• Not good!
• Undocumented methods proliferate, IETF
  submissions delayed as long as three years
• Not good!
• A lot of methods with similar intents
• E.g. tunneling -- not good either!
• A lot of methods with vendor background, a lot of
  expired methods
• Status unknown
• Many requests to IANA before 2284bis approval
• Consider using 2284bis 5.7 or submitting for
