I've prepared a draft IANA registration template. We have some work in flux on the SWHID spec, so I'll submit the registration request once it's done.

Meanwhile I've verified that the new IANA policy for provisional registrations is first-come/first-served (unless there are conflicts), so this should be pretty straightforward to obtain.
