Reference: [RFC 4701]
Registration Procedures: Standards Action

Note: Registration rules to be as follows:
New DHCID RR type codes are tentatively assigned after the specification for the associated type code, 
published as an Internet Draft, has received expert review by a designated expert.
The final assignment of DHCID RR type codes is through Standards Action, as defined in [RFC 2434].

The expert will be Olafur Gudmundsson
