Summary: This document is ready for publication as a (?) RFC.

Minor issues: Is BCP status really appropriate?  Informational seems
more appropriate for this sort of document.  The choice of providing a
modicum of guidance in Section 2, as opposed to in the RFC that
establishes the registry, could suggest this status, but that seems a
bit weak as motivation.

Nits:

+der doesn't even make a passing reference to +ber.  That's odd, since
one describes a subset of the other.

Mention of schema for +der and +ber doesn't seem relevant to the key
security consideration: that structures can be nested indefinitely.
This is possible regardless of what the schema says - a generic
processor is more likely to fall victim in that regard.
