Hi,

Following up on this discussion (and hoping to wrap it up):

I have created two  wikis off of
https://trac.ietf.org/trac/netmod/wiki/WikiStart, one for 6087bis
content and the other for section 3 of tree diagrams.  I also propose
the following changes to the tree-diagrams draft:

To section 3 intro, add:
    For the most current quidelines being developed, please see the IETF
NetMod Working
   Group Wiki, see:  https://trac.ietf.org/trac/netmod/wiki/WikiStart

Add :
  3.2.  Groupings

   If the YANG module is comprised of groupings only, then the tree
   diagram should contain the groupings.  The 'pyang' compiler can be
   used to produce a tree diagram with groupings using the "-f tree --
   tree-print-groupings" command line parameters.

And to section 3.3, start with:

   Tree diagrams can be split into sections to correspond to document
   structure.

For 6087 bis, I think section 3.4 gets replaced with something like.

    YANG tree diagrams provide a concise representation of a YANG module,
   and SHOULD be included to help readers understand YANG module
    structure.  Guidelines on tree diagrams can be found in Section 3 of
    [I-D.ietf-netmod-yang-tree-diagrams].

These changes can be found at:
https://github.com/netmod-wg/yang-tree-diagrams/commit/53919e0a4549c285758eb5aaaf02cf980269afff

This leaves the intended status as the key open issue on the draft.
