Excellent

That is good. I'll make sure this is done (and liase with DVB, etc to ensure 
we get things correct).

However, I'd be happier if we get the IETF approval (i.e. IESG approval) for 
the ULE Spec first, this should be only a few months away - this will be soon 
followed by an RFC number  that can be a normative reference.
