Section 3 says:
This document lists the implementation status of cryptographic algorithms used with DNSSEC. These algorithms are maintained in an IANA registry at http://www.iana.org/assignments/dns-sec-alg-numbers. Because this document establishes the implementation status of every algorithm, it has been listed as a reference for the registry itself.
It should say:
This document lists the implementation status of cryptographic algorithms used with DNSSEC. These algorithms are maintained in an IANA registry at http://www.iana.org/assignments/dns-sec-alg-numbers. Because this document establishes the implementation status of every algorithm, it has been listed as a reference for the registry itself. Given significance of status change of RSAMD5 algorithm, a reference to this RFC should be added to the registry.
Notes:
"RSAMD5 has an implementation status of Must Not Implement because of known weaknesses in MD5."
This is very important. An additional reference would lower likelihood that DNS Implementors will overlook the important piece of information.

[RFC6605] Hoffman, P. and W. Wijngaards, "Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (DSA) for DNSSEC", RFC 6605, April 2012.
Notes:
This Normative Reference is simply missing from the document, even though the algorithms from RFC 6605 are "Recommended to Implement" in RFC 6944. (Cf. how RFC 5933 is referenced, even though its algorithms are merely optional.)
