I generally agree to publish it as Informational. One of my concerns is 
that the document includes IANA registration requests for the vts-lang 
XML namespace and the schema. My understanding is that, even if it is 
Informational, they are registered in the IANA directory below, 
am I right?

http://www.iana.org/assignments/xml-registry/ns.html
http://www.iana.org/assignments/xml-registry/schema.html

Another note is that the discussion in the IETF was almost finished
after its implementation demonstration at the 54th IETF meeting.
But, related specification, the Infrared Voucher Profile specification
(IrVoucher), is still actively discussing in IrDA (Infrared Data 
Association) and the spec will refer to the vts-lang spec.
So, I would like to have it published as soon as possible even if
it is Informational.
