[Chair hat on] Given the number of competing/complementing drafts involved, and the general lack of discussion on any of them, a virtual interim meeting might be an expedient way to proceed. In fairness, we know that there has been some discussion, but it hasn’t been picked up yet in a big way, and now Lou has an updated draft.
The chairs discussed maybe scheduling one for a couple weeks from now, perhaps Thursday Feb 18 starting at 10am EST? I'm thinking about this slot only since it worked for us for previously. Is this a good time slot? I assume to schedule for 2 hours, with a plan to end early if needed - makes sense? We also need to put together a proper agenda, perhaps the following? 10 min: RTG DT YANG Arch team use-case summary 20 min: draft-rtgyangdt-rtgwg-device-model 20 min: draft-lhotka-netmod-ysdl 20 min: draft-bjorklund-netmod-structural-mount 50 min: general discussion or end early We hope to schedule the meeting itself tomorrow or the next day, so please respond quickly to this email if possible.
