Generating IE in the I-D from a CSV file

[henkbirkholz]

The threshold of contributing to the set of IE could be significantly lowered (and the resulting entries in the corresponding sections in the draft homogenized), if the IE sections would be generated from a separate CSV file, I think.

What does the group think about this proposal?

At the moment, a table is generated from the written draft text, which is of course useful, but if we would start from a table in the first place, anyone with a spread sheet editor could easily add or modify the content (e.g. via pull request).

+1. I like that idea if someone wants to put it together.

Jim is working on this here #77.

To make review for others easier, here is an HTML view of the IEs that Jim generated from a CSV file.
