Instead, *all* changes to data related to MAC addresses and authoritative registrations of same are to be recorded in journals. Journals are to be added to but never removed from, nor deleted. This does mean that differentiation must be done from the journals to derive meaningful and complete information about a MAC address/OUI. Yet the ability to view historical activity in the process of IEEE registry changes alone makes this worthwhile.
